Hello.
I am on cycle 5 of capecitabine and at the end of the last cycle I started to experience stomach cramps, occasionally accompanied by diarrhoea. Having started my next cycle, I am not having any diarrhoea but still experiencing regular stomach cramps sometimes accompanied by wind
I am wondering if anyone else is experiencing this and if there are any tips on things that may help?
thank you. X x
