Either Xeloda isn’t nearly as tough on the system as the IV chemotherapy was, or I’m a whole lot stronger this time around. I am admittedly tired, but I feel realllllly good. And strong. And still up, working, at 10 p.m.

Or both? This news makes me so happy! (Seriously, I think you’re stronger than I am, if you’re still working at 10pm. I’ve usually crashed out well before then!)
Long may the good times continue
W00t! Thanks!
Glad it is going so well.
I’m so glad to hear you’re doing well. I did Xeloda with Ixempra (an IV chemo) and, other than some digestive issues, didn’t have too much trouble with it.
[...] than when not on chemo, but nothing like I was on IV chemo. Otherwise, I had no symptoms at all the first week. The second and third weeks, I lost my appetite and had gas and diarhea as my body adjusted to [...]
