Wife starting Xeloda
Hi. Hope it’s okay to post as a family member/caregiver. We found out yesterday that there has been new tumor growth in my wife’s bones. Very lucky that mets are confined there. Have been reading about Xeloda side effects and now I’m scared. She’s been on Enhertu for a year and had no side effects so this feels like a disaster. Anyone have a loved one on this med? Or are taking it? I know this is not a lived one’s forum but I was so thrilled to see a safe LGBTQ+ space.
