@jseim106,
Now that I've been on Xeloda for a little over 3 months, I can relate to the foot pain and issues. I've been taking Xeloda for 2 weeks on and 1 week off. By the 11th day in the 2 week cycle, my feet start to crack and peel with blisters forming along my toes. Then on the 12th day (and 3 to 4 days later) it feels like I'm walking on sharp stones (and it doesn't matter how much padding I put in my shoes, the pain makes it really hard to walk around.) I have stomach issues too, but they are tolerable. During my 1 week "off" the side effects subside and by the time the week is up and I have to start the 2 week cycle again, I'm feeling pretty good. I go for a check up on the 13th and might ask my doc if I can do 11 days on then a week off. It might prevent the blisters and pain.

I'd like to find people who've been on just Xeloda because I'm wondering if it really does keep shrinking tumors or at least prevent them from growing. I might have to be on it for the rest of my life, assuming it does what it's supposed to do.

Can you give more insight. What's it's been like being on Xeloda? Thanks, and best wishes!
