Epirubicin and Cyclphospohamide fortnightly, had 2nd dose last thursday.
I need ideas to help with the funny taste/dry mouth.
Does not matter what I eat or drink nothing seems to quench it.
help and ideas please
Lisa
The only two suggestions I have are chilled fresh pineapple and very cold sparkling water [San Pellegrino was best for me].Eat little and often and only what you fancy however bizarre.

Hi there!
I had the same after my first cycle of FEC and developed ulcers and sore gums too. Was told by my onc nurse to suck ice cubes during treatment, which works in same way as cold cap, and having done that I have had no mouth problems on my subsequent 2 treatments. Worth a try! Lyn x
thanks for that we have some pineapple in the fridge so I will try that in a bit
Hi Lisa - did it help? Mary x
