Feel gutted having to go on oxygen when I go out as oxygen sats, go down to 90%, on the plus side oxygen sats when I'm sat down are better, hoping it's just temporary and xeloda is going to kick cancers butt.

Back on oxygen
Oh, dear Kiera49! I'm so sorry about oxygen! I think you started the Xeloda very recently? I hope you start feeling some positive effects from it soon!
Sending love,
Lynn
Thanks I only started it 6 days ago, not feeling that great on it, but having anti sickness pills which are helping and feel thirsty most of the time
Sorry you’ve had to go back on oxygen when out and I hope this is temporary and that Xeloda soon kicks in and you are able to enjoy your family holiday . Much love x
Oh I’m so sorry about the oxygen. Are your Mets to the lungs? I do hope the Xeloda kicks in very soon and that it works for a long time.
Yes they are, I was good on Ibrance my breathing was good but now its grown by 2mm, my breathing has got worse when I move around, fingers x xeloda will do its job, hoping for reduction for my holiday in 3 weeks but think that maybe a bit soon after only one cycle. My friend just died of lung cancer 4 weeks after diagnosis, so I think I am lucky these drugs are giving me more time x
Hi Tracey,
I'm so sorry to hear about your friend's death. How are you coping?
I hope that xeloda soon kicks in for you and reduces the tumours in time for your holiday. You deserve a nice getaway where you can relax and enjoy yourself after what you have been through, and are continuing to go through.
Take care,
Sophie
I'm ok thanks just in shock still in denial, cant believe his gone, told onc dont want to be on xeloda on my hols so will have 2 weeks off, you want to have a good holiday never know how many more holidays I will be able to go on
Hey Tracey. I hate you're struggling with xeloda. I'll cross my fingers it kicks in quickly, and you can get off the oxygen, feel less sick and tired and enjoy your holiday. We all need those good times. Much love and many good thoughts, Andi
Thank you Andi xx
