Dear Cathy

I was on xeloda for skin mets before and have just started again. The first time I got little red blotches on my arms and face that gradually disappeared.My Onc thought they may be other basal cell skin things. Xeloda is like Effudix which is a cream I use for skin things my dermatologists gave me.It is a 5FU cream.
So it seemed for me the xeloda was uncovering and then treating any other skin cancers I had.
My face peeled and has never been so smooth.

love
Linda
