Hi mb333,
While you are waiting for replies from your fellow forum users I have put for you below the link to BCC’s publication on Capecitabine and hope you find it helpful. Also if you give the helpline here a ring they’ll be only too happy to talk to you about this. Lines to the helpline open again on Monday morning at 9am - 5pm (weekdays) and 10-2 Saturdays, calls are free 0808 800 6000.
