Morning ladies 
I woke up this morning with a really dry mouth - has anyone else had this? Thanks
?

Yes JC it is a side effect of treatment. I use biotene toothpaste and mouth wash which is for dry mouth. Sucking sweets also helps. I like mint humbugs and werthers. Some other ladies like pear drops. Try to drink plenty and get difflam mouthwash and oral gel to avoid getting a sore mouth. Hope it improves xx
Thank you - shopping today so can pick some bits up xx
Hi,
Yes, dry mouth seem to be a side effect of the chemo. Often followed by ulcers and sores.
Sipping a drink often can help - I like sparkling mineral water through a straw. Diflam mouthwash is really good for pain/sore mouth but can make it more dry so only use it if you need it. Otherwise biotene or an aloe Vera based alcohol free mouth wash are good. Some ladies swear by sucking frozen pineapple chunks too x
