Mouth ulcers
First bout of chemo on Friday and I have a couple of mouth ulcers around my teeth already. :-(
I've been really diligent in cleaning with a soft brush after eating and I've been doing the salt water ...

My friend who had been through chemo before me gave me a tip that a nurse gave her. Sip ice cold water the whole way through the chemo infusion. I used to freeze half filled water bottles and fill them with water on the day. Sipped all during the procedure and never had a mouth ulcer. Worth a try. She also told me no hot drinks, but could never resist the tea trolley but used to,let it cool a bit before sipping it.
Good luck
