Tomorrow I start my six cycles of Xeloda. Each cycle is three weeks long. Two weeks on the pills and one week off. So it will be a total of 18 weeks on these pills. As usual plenty of side effects but my Oncologist says the worse side effect would be the hands and feet feeling like that are burning and peeling. I have faith that I won’t have these side effects and this phase will be a breeze.

I am still suffering from the radiation but see the light at the end of the tunnel. The blisters are bad and still bleed but are getting more manageable. It is either that it is getting easier or I am getting use to it. I am still very tired but seems that my thyroid and diabetes are out of control. So hopefully with new dosage I can get my energy back.

Nevertheless, these are phases that mean I am one step closer to completing my cancer treatment. I just can’t wait to be back to some kind of normal. So remember be kind as you never know what someone is going through!

As always, I am blessed! I got this!
