I was on 2000mg and my feet were blistered. The day I went in for my scans and was told I was NED, I wore slippers to the drs. office. I feel for you. I had to occaisionally take a few days off to help, but lowering the dose is probably the most logical answer. I played tennis through chemo and I know that this activity aggravated the problem, try to be gentle on your hands and feet while you are on Xeloda. I used the udder cream they gave me but it really didn't help all that much...sherryg683
