Anyone on Xeloda and having some mental lapses? MRI shows no brain lesion, but something is going on with my thought process.

Memory and thinking changes, sometimes called "chemo brain" or cancer-related cognitive changes, are something many people in the metastatic breast cancer community report during treatment, and they deserve to be taken seriously. Because the cause can be hard to pinpoint, sharing these symptoms with the care team is a helpful step, and other members are welcome to share their own experiences with Xeloda and mental fog to help this member feel less alone.
