breast cancer, metastatic
"I have been taking Xeloda 500mg. for approximately 5 months with only a few side effects  I am on one week and off the next.  I am tired during the week I am on with occasional diarrhea.  I have noticed my hair thinning more but not too extreme.  I don't have any hand or foot peeling as others do.  I sleep really good and my appetite has not been affected.  On occasion my gums feel a little tender.  The best part is my tumor markers continue to drop in number!   This is working for me."
