Hi Steph N!

Thank for your reply, Please read my msg to Paul about my history.
Regarding Xeloda, Now I am at the 6th cycle (2000 Mg daily, 1000 at breakfast and 1000 at dinner); one cycle: 3 weeks daily & 1 week rest.
Side effects seems quite manageable, some times I get pain in the chest at night, and some days diariah, body ache & tirdness and loss of appetite. I have now pleural & paricardial effusions, after Xeloda. I am not quite sure whether Xeloda is responsible for it, which I have to investigate and find out. I am due for a scan end of this cycle. I will wait and see.
Chandi.
