Hello. Today Have My Oncologist Appointment And She Will Be Starting Me On Xeloda In About A Week.

Does any one are on this medication Xeloda?
What have you been experiencing the side affect?
This will be my new treatment.
My dr took me off on Ibrance and Falsodex last 2 weeks.
I have been on both medications for 5 1/2 years.
I want to know what does it do when you taking Xeloda?
Thank you

I do follow a lady on YouTube whom has just started it, she started out same as you, and was on the first two you said for around the same amt of time, now they literally just started her on this one yesterday. She showed us the introductory kit, and told us some general info just a bit. It seems really intense. I pray with all my heart, that this works well for both of you, hugs, good vibes, and prayers!!! <333

I just read your story Marian . So did ibrance stop working and now you will try something else? My doctor said that happens when you are stage 4, that whatever we are on eventually stops working and then something else is tried. 5 1/2 yrs on those 2 drugs is a remarkable accomplishment in itself. Side effects had to be rough. I hope your new treatment gives positive results

Why did she take you off? Have you ever been NED? Iā€™m glad it worked for 5.5 years.
