I'm on the one-week break between rounds of Xeloda. I take it twice a day for 14 days, then get seven days "off."
I've been quite fatigued so have tried to only take on one activity per day. Last Friday I cooked dinner for friends; on Saturday Dunava had our last recording session in the studio; Sunday I visited with a friend and then could barely get off the sofa to eat dinner in front of the TV while watching the Academy Awards.
Yesterday I took my first walk with Bobka in several days. We managed to get around the block, and somehow I dragged myself to and from the grocery store. I crashed for a short nap and later some friends came over to visit.
Today Bob and I went for a longer walk, and I have a meeting of my support group for young women with metastatic breast cancer. I imagine I will crash on the sofa again this afternoon. Hopefully the fatigue will ease up in the next couple of days.

ReplyDeleteI am at about the same place with Xeloda. Today begin my second two week round of the drug. What dose are you on ? I am on a very low dose partly my age and partly I was already nauseous from past meds. The onc hopes to increase it next round. Following your blog with interest !
