Hi Caz, you did the right thing having your mammogram AFTER your trip.
It’s a big surprise isn’t it when you have no family history- and you probably breast fed your kids,don’t smoke,eat healthy,exercise and maintain a good weight! There’s no rhyme or reason.During chemo,my mouth felt like the back end of a hairy dog! I used a straw to get fluids past my tongue.All I could get down was veg soup,lemon cordial and lemonade iceblocks on those bad days.I guess if your throat issues continue then get dr to have a look.Big hug.xx
