Brenda~
Thank you for all your encouragement & insight! I'm following "Your" regimen - Tykerb@ night right before bed, & Xeloda in the a.m. with food, then 10-12 hours later I take the 2nd dose.
So far, so good.
Side effects not too terrible - some GI stuff, but nothing too major. And I have noticed that the 1st hour right after I take the Xeloda I have to be pretty mellow...no popping pills & running out the door! I did that the other day & that was a big mistake. I was woozy, nauseas & foggy-headed - definitely not good for driving around & running errands!
Learning how to manage these meds makes all the difference in the world, so thank you again for all your guidance!
