Capecitabine side effects are really tough: What helps?

@115 Your side effects may increase as your capecitabine treatment progresses. From what I have learned, the two days off won't allow the capecitabine to completely leave your system. So, you will have a little more left in your system after each five day cycle. Make sense?

@tomrennie today was my first day of treatment. I haven’t noticed any difference in taking the capecitabine from how I usually feel. So I’m happy with that. I’m sure there will be a build up of it in my system and that could cause issues. I’m making sure I’m eating small meals also. Thank you for your reply.
