Thanks for your reply. I had seen these two posts but they are quite old and I just wondered if there was anyone on the site now taking it.

Hi All After two cycles of Capecitebine I have been told I can nolonger take it due to it affecting my liver. I am having a few weeks to recover and then there is talk aobut starting Everolimus and exemestane . Just wondered what experice others had on these drugs. I have tried searching the site but can only find an old thread. Thanks

It is when the tumor spreads from the breast to the bones. People can get mets in all different parts of the body, ie lungs, liver, skin. Hope this helps you

Thanks Riversidedawn for your post. My problem is not seeing the same doctor, which I quite accept will not happen, but scan results not being followed up, so my treatment was delayed by 4 months. Also no one seems to communicate. At my last appointment the consultant said I would not need another blood test, yet 2 days later the chemo suite ring me to say I have to come in and have one. these are not one off things but happen at nearly every appointment. I have the sectratarey ringing me to ask what is happening about the appointments becasue one dr is saying to her I don't need one and the other is saying I do. As you can tell I am very frustrated.

Never had it before myself but I know that is why they always insist on a recent blood test to check your renal funtion before they give the dye as it leaves the body via the kidneys. Hope you get it sorted. I doubt it is anything to worry about. On the next blood test it will probally all be fine.

HI I have just finsihed my first cycle of Capecitabine. I have never felt so awful. I think I had all the side effects listed but the worst was the nausea and exptream tiredness. It was all I could do to go from bed to sofa. Now having had a few days off I am starting to get energy but I can't walk due to the massive fluid blisters. My consultant has reduced the does by 20% but I am not confident that this will make enought difference. Has anyone experienced similar. Thanks Sarah

I just wondered if anyone had ever chanaged consultants as they are not happy with first. I am very unhappy with mine, not in terms of the diagnoisis which I fully accept. It is just that things are being missed and the chemo nurses keep having to ring me to find out what is happening wiht my drugs as there seems to be a real problem with commmunication Going next week to see my GP and find out if it will be possible so any advice from anyone who has done it would really be appircateed. One possible hospital to move to could be the Royal Marden in Sutton just wondered if anyone is being treated here and how they find it. Thanks very much
