Hi there
I am currently on Docetaxel as palliative treatment for Oesophageal cancer, but I am experiencing peripheral neuropathy so feel I no longer wish to carry on with this treatment.I have previously been on Xerox but had a bad reaction on my last treatment which was stopped by the consultant which I think was due to me having a stent fitted and a week later I was given treatment which I think was too soon after having a stent fitted. I don’t want to have no treatment so was wondering if anyone is on capecitabine tablets only.

Have you had a look at this cancer trial? It might be of interest:
