Holly,
I'm so sorry to hear that you are not handeling Xeloda well. What is the disage you are taking? It is my understanding from all the posts I have read here that your Doctor can lower the dosage if you are having a difficult time. When do you see your Onc again? Are you on any other medication?
Please give us more details and information so maybe, we can help you better.
((((((((HUGS))))))))
