    So far so good!

    No adverse reactions to the Avastin. I tolerate Xeloda very well.

    Peace

    That's great!

    I've been on Xeloda since July 2016.  It has worked pretty well for me so far.  I had some pain and bloating in my stomach the first few months but have learned what foods to avoid so that I don't have to take additional medications for the upset stomach.   Make sure you drink lots of water when you take it.  Also use some good lotion on your hands feet.

    I started Xeloda a week ago

    I started Xeloda a week ago and feel fine. I love not having to go get poked and miss several hours of work for it or trying to find parking. They took the entire parking lor out of a very busy cancer centre and parking is a nightmare. They're rebuilding it and it will be done on three years.
