Xeloda side effects
Xeloda
has been suggested but I'm worried the side effects will make it impossible for me to care for my husband who has advanced dementia. It seems a rather drastic change of medication and I was wondering if there is anything else before actual chemo, which I believe
Xeloda
to be.

MBC changing from oral chemo to drip
Now I’ve been on
Xeloda
for only five months and is no longer working. My cancer antigens are going up and cancer Mets on liver are growing. Now my oncologist wants me to go on a chemo drip which I was hoping to avoid. I had a chemo drip six years ago along with bilateral mastectomy.

Xeloda & Eating
Good Morning Ladies, This question is for those of you that take
Xeloda
: I was told to take it with a "substantial" meal twice a day. What is meant by substantial? I eat one good meal and a smaller meal each day. It's all I can do and I feel much better when I stick with this amount of food.

RISE IN TUMOR MARKERS
💗💗 I’ve recently had a treatment change to
Xeloda
(capecitabine) after mild progression on Faslodex. My blood work yesterday showed a slightly elevated number in both markers after two cycles on
Xeloda
. Has anyone else experienced anything similar?

Then what?
I continue to have upper right quadrant pain just like I had prior to
Xeloda
and like that I experienced when
Xeloda
failed. The radiation oncologist has assured me that is not expected from the SBRT. I assume it is more progression in my liver.

Metronomic Dosing of Xeloda (capecitabine) (cape) is working for now
My first line of treatment for bone only MBC was Kisqali and Letrozole for almost two years. I was NED for much of that time but then had mets to the peritoneal area. Started cape in Nov of 2020 at 4000 mg per day, 2 weeks on then a week off. That was way too much for my body as I had extreme fatigue

Piqray
I was on
Xeloda
and it stopped working. My cancer numbers went up. Today I started Piqray. I also started Metfornin for high blood sugar as this is a side effect of Piqray. I went to Sloan a few years ago and they did a full range of tests and told me my cancer could have a mutation.

Has anyone been advised by their oncologist to stop chemo 1 week before and 1 week after a Covid vaccination?
I had my first dose of Astra Zeneca on 19 May and was told by my onc to stop taking
Xeloda
one week before the vaccination and another week after. Yesterday I had my blood tests and my CA15-3 increased by 12% and CEA by 50%. I’m wondering if this has been caused by my 2 week stoppage of
Xeloda
.

I think I will be coming off of Xeloda, which I have loved….
My question is what have other people started taking once
Xeloda
failed them? My doctor says I have a few choices, but hasn’t yet described them…I’ve already done Ibrance, tamoxifen, Docetaxol, Afinitor…..she did say awhile ago that I might be able to do Docetaxol again….anyway, any input?

PET showed progression Ibrance stopped
My oncologist has taken me off Ibrance and has offered me two options. 18 weekly sessions of Taxol followed by cycles of
Xeloda
. She said it's just palative at this point. I'm ok with accepting the inevitable, although I haven't given up living.

Scan results on liver not great
Currently on
Xeloda
. My bones responded well to it. My pain in the liver went away and so did my bloatiness. Does anyone know if the Y90 or HAI treatment will help with this. I am beside myself. Only a few people know if my issue.

Liver SBRT Monday
Last month, my scan showed that after only 6 months on
Xeloda
, 2 lesions on my liver had tripled in size. I requested a consult for Y90. After an absolute fiasco of getting the images to the RO, he advised against Y90 because of too much damage caused to peripheral tissue.

Follow up on SBRT to Liver
In May, two lesions were discovered on my liver after progression on
Xeloda
. One lesion was 2.5 cm the other 3.7. They were located on opposites sides of the organ. I requested a consult on Y90 treatment, but it was determined SBRT was a better choice.
