Today I discovered I'd been taking only a THIRD of the amount of Xeloda I'm supposed to be taking.
I thought it was 1 500 mg. pill, twice a day. In reality it's 3 500 mg. pills/day, twice a day, for 6 total: 1500 x 2. I've blown my own head off.
When I called to check and make sure, the oncologist said to be sure to tell me "not to worry. It won't change your outcome."
Well, of course not. The "outcome" is near certain death, and I'd forgotten that.
Now I'll be sick, too, because of a mixup. No wonder I've had so few side effects. Now I will, but it won't change the outcome, will it? Why bother? Because I'm afraid.
