&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My name is Catheryn, this is my first ever blog.&amp;nbsp; I have had surgery for bowel cancer and am on a&amp;nbsp;trial 12 week course of adjuvant chemo.&amp;nbsp; The drugs I am having are xeloda (infusion once every 3 weeks) and&amp;nbsp; capecitabine tablets for 14 days then 7 days break..&amp;nbsp; Is there anyone else out there&amp;nbsp;on the&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;quot;Scott trial&amp;quot;&amp;nbsp;?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Also has anyone got any comments re peripheral neuropathy casused by chemo drugs, (numbness and pain in fingers), mainly how to get through it..&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Would love to hear from anyone who has had similar experience.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best wishes&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/aggbug?PostID=340211&amp;AppID=30773&amp;AppType=Weblog&amp;ContentType=0" width="1" height="1"&gt;</content><author><name>Former Member</name><uri>https://community.macmillan.org.uk/members/formermember</uri></author><category term="neuropathy" scheme="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/catheryn1/archive/tags/neuropathy" /><category term="capecitabine" scheme="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/catheryn1/archive/tags/capecitabine" /><category term="colorectal" scheme="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/catheryn1/archive/tags/colorectal" /><category term="Infusion" scheme="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/catheryn1/archive/tags/Infusion" /><category term="chemotherapy" scheme="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/catheryn1/archive/tags/chemotherapy" /><category term="Peripheral neuropathy" scheme="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/catheryn1/archive/tags/Peripheral%2bneuropathy" /><category term="bowel cancer" scheme="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/catheryn1/archive/tags/bowel%2bcancer" /><category term="numbness" scheme="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/catheryn1/archive/tags/numbness" /></entry></feed>
