2nd Round on Capecitabine/Xeloda- The power of the mind

So my second round of capecitabine was a little up and down but more up than down! I learnt this week how powerful the mind can be and when you let those little gremlins take charge it can really effect the way your body feels. I was down due to the realisation that my life is meant to be focused around taking these 6 tablets every day for 2 weeks on and one week off cycle but I just don't accept it people! I plan on allowing the tablets to aid me in getting my body in tip top fighting shape and then trust that my body knows how to do the rest! Cancer is not a foreign body that has entered you like a flu its your own body crying out for help and I plan on listening. If my body can create cancer cells it can remember how to get rid of them I just need to make sure I get my head, body and nutrition all in the right place first! Thank you for watching my video it means so much!

I’m on Cape too. Anticipated for 6 to 8 cycles. I was feeling down too, but my GP calls it my “insurance policy” and that has really helped me,

Thank you so much for your candor about your cancer and this medication. I am starting my first dose of Xeloda tomorrow for State II Colon Cancer. I had a HemiColectomy in June and have to take the chemo because the tumor was large (T4) and against the vasculature of the liver. I am trying hard to think of this as the medicine I need to kick this cancer out of my body. I have been practicing meditation for the past several months. I ask God to bless this medicine to heal my body and allow me to continue living a long time yet. You are an inspiration! I pray you continue to do well.

Thank you for this infos because I'm going to start this meditation soon!

[@anqoinettecrowder-jones321]

Thank you so much for this video. I’m starting xeloda this morning. And I needed some perspective and this helped because of I’m scared of the side effect. But like you said mindset. I will look at the pills as a blessing and Gods way to send direct helpers to rid my healthy body of the cancer. Thank you. Any other tips would be great!

[@blancaorozco4485]

Amy A are you doing radiation treatment as well?

[@amy8460]

Blanca Orozco No I am not. I had BC in 2016 and did radiation then but not chemo at the time. I was doing hormone treatments but they didnt work and the tumors grew. Now Im trying this med today. These positive videos are so helpful for preparation and attitude.

[@flissisrandom]

Hello lovely I am just about to start Cape and am worried about the side effects specifically the hair thinning and I wondered how you have got on with it? I am only 25 so am really scared xx

[@changeyourdietchangeyourli9749]

Flissy Dickson I haven’t done a follow up video for quite some time but when I do you’ll see you have nothing to worry about when it comes to your hair 😊 I didn’t have any problems with thinning if anything it made it slightly less oily so didn’t have to wash it as often x don’t be scared keep a positive mind and keep active 💚

[@flissisrandom]

@@changeyourdietchangeyourli9749 Thank you so so much for your reply. Your video has inspired me and I have done one myself because I feel that younger people don't have as much help when it comes to stuff like this because of our age, doctors think we cannot get cancer so thank you for giving me the courage to do my own videos and I am so pleased to hear that you are getting on okay with your treatment. I just didn't want to lose my hair again but you have given me hope. How are you getting on with your hands and feet? That's another thing I am a bit scared about xx
