Sucking ice cube during IV chemo to stop sore mouth
Has anyone had any experience with ice therapy for any IV chemo eg sucking on an ice cube during the transfusion in order to prevent a sore mouth from developing? Is anyone being treated at the Alf...
A very good friend of mine who had done chemo before me advised me to take two bottles of ice cold water and sip on them comtinually during my chemo. I used to half fill them with water and freeze it overnight and then top them up with water the morning of chemo. I did this and never got mouth ulcers. Not sure if that was the reason, but I felt it helped.
Good luck.
