xeloda side effects?

Hi gang
THe Dr. has now put me on xeloda. My first shipment of this will occur tommorow. While the oncology nurse was giving me what to look out for, side effects etc. She mentioned that Hair loss was a common side effect.
I do not remember if some of my brave friends on this site, mentioned this?? I have been searching on the web and not finding this side effect medication as well..
I am taking tykerb now and have been for about a year. Could I please get some feedback on this drug as well? She also told me to take a nausa medication prior to having breakfast, then take the xeloda (30 minutes)..
I will call my Dr. tommorrow after the medication arrives. Do I need to get my wigs out? (lol)
She (onc. nurse) made a comment that the tykerb and zeloda were usually given in seperate doses of 2 times a day.
I would appreciate any help on this..
thanks for the feedback as well... this is one fine group of folks here..
