Although this is an old thread (from 2009), since it has been revived, I'll add that each patient is different. While Xeloda might be easy to use for some patients, for others it can be difficult. "Good for ONE" is NOT always "Good for ALL". My husband ended up in the hospital after taking Xeloda, and it is felt that the drug contributed to the problem.
Here is another thread about Xeloda, with some links that are informative.
