I have been on Tykerb since December 2010. No xeloda. I have also been on herceptin since July 2007. So far so good with Tykerb. I take 5 pills a day. It has reduced the tumor on my chest wall significantly. I go to the bathroom more frequently now but it sure beats the opposite conddition. I can always take immodium but haven't had the need to do that SO FAR. I have however, noticed that my mouth can get very dry. I don't know if this is related but I think I have yet another UTI. Has anyone else had a recurrent problem with uti's and found a solution besides antibiotics to control them?
Be well!
