Hi Jenny,
I also had the mouth ulcers with the FEC and I was told by my Oncologist to use a product you can buy it over the counter at the Chemist It's called NILSTAT and it is fantastic I still keep it in my fridge and I was told while using Nilstat to stop salt water rinsing and also the rinsing with Bi Carb Soda as it agrivates it and this cures it, the chemo nurses also told me to use it, I hope it works for you as the mouth ulcers are horrible I now only have 3 cycles of chemo to go including today and I can't wait until I'm finished, sending you a cuddle and a smile.
