@115 , glad you are doing well. I start week 3 Monday and so far I am doing well. Occasional diarrhea but manage it. I will be anxious to see how well the following weeks will be for me. Please keep me informed.

@gc4217 week 3 for me was when I was told to expect to be more tired and I experienced more gas & some stomach issues. I just finished week 4 and find I have some pain I take Tylenol xtra strength it helps. I’m drinking watered down pedialyte to stay hydrated. I’ve discovered not to bend over within 2 hrs of taking Xeludo as it causes a rush of heartburn. And it’s not advised to take antacids within 2 hrs of Xeludo. It’s getting harder but I only have 11 treatments left to go. I wish you the best thank you for checking on me.
