Hi Jackie,
I had FEC - T, I would use Imodium, and mouth wash, also I had to change to Milk teeth toothpaste as My usual one made it worse.
My second round I didn't have Diarrhoea, hope your ok xx
Hi Jacky
Sorry it's so rough. Take the medication and mouth wash, I had various ones to try. Phone the breast nurses they will give you anything to help, I was often ringing them for advice. I had 3 rounds of chemo and each one the side effects were different.
Best wishes

Hi avoid mouth washes with alcohol in, use a very soft toothbrush then mix a teaspoon of salt and a teaspoon of baking soda with water and use that as yr mouthwash as much as you can even through the night if you get up. I didn't get one sore doing this but I do realise different chemotherapy's give different side effects.
Hope this helps xx
