My doctors know nothing

I am on capecitabine alone. I will ask my doctor about CAPTEM.
Does CAPTEM have more side effects than capecitabine?

Yes. The temozolomide beat me up a little more. It is usually taken with ondansetron (Zofran) to help with nausea and vomiting. Initially, I did have a fair amount of nausea, but it got a lot better over time. How are you handling capecitabine? Any issues?
