    hi girls,

    can anyone tell me what their dosage is of xeloda? I will be starting is next week.  I believe is 3x's500mg morning and 4x's 500 mg evening.  I'm reading that there are not a lot of side effects, that would be nice.  I just came off of radiation for brain mets....it went okay...

    Thanks for info,

    LH

    Hi LH

    Im taking 4000mg a day at the moment, 4x500mg morning and evening 12 hours apart.

    I finish cycle 2 this evening and so far no SE, although I was told after cycle 3 is the time the hand and foot syndrome may start so Im a few weeks off that yet, theres a few xeloda threads in the reccurance and mets bit if you havent already found them they might be worth a look

    take care

    sue xx
