Thanks @Glynnis ... hubby had the dry mouth (easy to actually 'hear' it in his voice, too, weirdly!) Not the diarrhoea tho! It was the Folfiri (current chemo) that gave him diarrhoea and hair loss - the hair loss really pisses him off as he had a lovely head of hair.
Our dentist gave him this to try - it comes in various fruit flavours and is quite good. You can also get some sort of 'sponge on sticks' that you wipe the inside of your mouth with (I forget the name tho. Sorry!)
