Re: Tykerb/Xeloda, side effects??
My most annoying side effect so far [two rounds of Tykerb and Xeloda] are the finger tip splits which I am successfully treating with Triple Lanolin Aloe Vera.
My proctologist suggested more fiber for the Big D, and so CornBread, Corn Flakes, and Corn Chips, but NOT corn.
This is a process and I'm adjusting my thinking from Survived Cancer to Dying of Cancer, to Living with Cancer. I perfer Living with Cancer, as a mental attitude. It does take some management to get it all right.

HER2 positive, and - as my diagnosis is 4 years old - I don't remember the rest. Three surgeries, radiation, Herceptin until it broke my heart, Femara then Aromasin. Now Tykerb and Xeloda. Rock on!
