Barb,

Xeloda is not a drug that I have taken. I think your post came at an odd time is the reason you haven't gotten any answers. Some on here have taken it. It also could be that they haven't eaten anything special or different. Hope you get some answers soon. Blessings, Hannah

Hi Barb

I started Xeloda yesterday and I’m just having some meusli with yoghurt 30mins before the Xeloda as I can’t eat big meals and the nurse said that’s fine

Hi Barb

I’ve recently been enjoying a toasted crumpet, spread with marmite and sprinkling of cheddar cheese .. delicious & very filling BUT marmite is a love or hate thing.

I never heard of marmite what is it? Lol

in reply to Barb5

Marmite is a yeast extract, Barb. It looks like black tar and is often spread on toast.

Thanks I never heard of it.

Have a great day 🙂

in reply to Barb5

It’s a British condiment. I never came across it when I lived in America. I hope you have a great day too.

I didn't eat anything special Barb when I was on Xeloda. I would go with what I felt my stomach could handle, trying to keep it in balance (enough veggies, fruit, protein etc.) I too can eat in small amounts.

Not what you're looking for?
