Here are my thoughts:
1. What is the best cream you have found for hand/foot?
--udderly smooth udder cream (your local pharmacy or hardware store should carry it)
2. How long until you experienced:
nausea?
hand/foot?
--i never experienced nausea. H/F started after my second cycle (week 6)
3. Does the nausea happen every day? or is it erratic?
--surprised to hear this is an issue for some...
4. Do you also have nausea during your 'off week'?
--N/A
5. What does your 'off week' feel like? Only fatigue?
--my worse symptoms were during the off week. H/F, diarheea and fatigue
Or other symptoms, too?
6. What is your preferred nausea med for Xeloda?
--N/A
Good luck,
