Hello, 

I am due to start Capecitabine chemo tablets soon and wondered what the main side effects are that people have experienced? 

Have people worked while taking these and what kind of reasonable plans have been put in place with employers? 

 

Thank you xx

    I'm Daisy53 one of the Community Champions on this forum.  I was on Capecitabine tablets for 6 months nearly four years ago.  I didn't have any side effects from them at all.  I didn't work while I was on them as we were in the middle of the Covid Pandemic at the time.

    I notice that you are a member of the Breast Cancer Forum as well so I suggest that you also put your question into that forum as it's a much busier one than this one.

    Wishing you the best of luck with them and hopefully like me you won't get any side effects from them.

    Best wishes
