I was only on xeloda for 1 cycle because of chest pains, Heart checked out fine. Scans were stable and even some improvement. Was it Xeloda or clean eating? Onc wont let me stay on xeloda. Any advice for A/A

    Get some steriod mouth rinse and use before mouth sores show up and they likely wont. A/A has been faiely easy for me. I did have small progression after 8 months bur many mets became inactive. So I have 2 more months till my next scan and hopefully newer mets will disappear as well. Good luck

    Whereas it has not been documented as yet to my knowledge, Afinitor can sometimes be hard on the liver, so please ensure your liver enzymes are carefully ad frequently monitored. It can also cause lung issues, so if you experience shortness of breath or coughing, please notify your oncologist immediately.

    I hoe you will do very well on your treatmewnt.
