After that doctor wants my body to rest for two weeks, then she is suggesting I try
Capecitabine
. This will be my fourth kind of treatment. She is concerned and of course, so am I. Continued prayers needed for myself and family.

Is anyone on capecitabine oral chemo here?How many cycles had your oncologist prescribed?
Hi, Just wanted to know if anyone is on
capecitabine
oral chemo here.i have seen many patients taking it as long as it is effective and stop it only if they have a progression. Can it be taken until progression or your doctor has prescribed a fixed number of cycles.

Vitamin supplements during chemo
Starting chemo tomorrow with
Capecitabine
/ Xelada. Oncologist advised not to take the following vitamins or supplements: C, E, Pobiotics, CoQ10. Is there any scientific justification for this or just Oncologist's dated view of supplements? Appreciate clarification.

Not what I wanted for Christmas
They plan to start me on
Capecitabine
for which I am having a blood test as its dangerous for some people, and Oxaliplatin in the new year. Onviously I am none too happy as the idea of 3/4 chemos, op and then a few more chemos and I'm done is now fading into the distance.

Can anyone share side effects with Capecitabine and Eribulin?
I have MBC which is progressing and I have to make a choice between these two treatments. I would really appreciate hearing from you the different side effects. It is so difficult to make a choice. Thanks!!!!

Secondary Breast Cancer in the Lungs
Hi Everyone, I've just been diagnosed (5th time in 27 years - so pretty good going); I've been told I need to start on
Capecitabine
chemo tablets. Is there anyone can comment on this drug - side effects etc?

After chemo...
He is just finishing his 6th cycle of ECX regime having had his last infusion of Cisplatin and Epirubicin 10 days ago, so just 11 days' worth of
Capecitabine
to finish.

Confused
The treatment that has been suggested is something called ECX (epirubicin, cisplatin and
capecitabine
) which having read the information leaflet is usually used for stomach and gullet cancers, but I presume they know what they are doing.

End of the rainbow, or was it the railway?
I am allergic to
Capecitabine
(or Xeloda - the X in ECX) so no further Chemo is possible. I am to get regular three onthly checkups, but no treatment will be given unless I develop symptoms.
