"The same med was given to my father with pancreatic cancer. His cancer was considered carcinoid tumors and was originally told he would die of old age before the cancer would get him. Unfortunately, when he took this med, his cancer spread like wildfire and lived a month after he was given this drug."

"I have been on Xeloda for 9 years. When I was heavier, I had no side effects. But when I lost weight intentionally, I had hand tightening, it may have been from another drug. My pancreatic cancer has been stable, no growth."

"My father was given capecitabine medication by his oncologist to slow down the progression of his pancreatic cancer. It did not work. Cancer spread fast."
