Never thought I'd laugh out loud on this Forum but I just did, Raz! "I don't eat with my boobs" - priceless!

And I've been having trouble with the typos as well, I even thought it was my phone and ran an update, it's a bit better now but there are still times when I type and it comes out as gobbledegook. 

I read voraciously as well, Clara, I can lose myself in a book. Usually crime novels ( today I learned what a Glasgow Smile is.)  

Having gone through most of the over-the-counter remedies for sore mouths ( Difflam, Anbesol, Hydrocortisone pellets) without success I am going to try some Orabase Paste - the sore place is getting bigger and I can't keep the mouth guards in all night, they drive me mad .

Sending best wishes your way Clara, and as Raz said, keep in touch. Or rouch even!! ( Sorry Raz I couldn't resist!) 

Hi Bengal kitty

glad I made you lol ! It’s a priceless one I have to agree with !

re sore mouth my oncologist wouldn’t prescribe anything apart from a saline solution of 9gram of salt in a litre of water ,he didn’t believe in any if the propriety ones just the old fashioned ones .He prescribed gelclair for ulcers that was all .

have you tried baking powder one teaspoon to a cup of like warm water ?

your attempt at misspelling nearly as good as mine  lol

Thanks for the suggestions for mouth washes by the way - I'm sure I have some sodium bicarbonate stashed away somewhere from when I used to watch that weird house cleaning programme with Aggie and What's Her Name - memory is shot these days...

But the Orabase paste is helping, except that my tongue now seems to be cemented to the side of my mouth. Reminds me of the time when James was about 9 or 10, I took him to the dentist for a check up and unbeknownst to me,he had picked up a free sample of what he thought was toothpaste and had rubbed it on his teeth. On the way back to the car, he started making these strange strangled- sounding noises - turned out it was Poligrip denture fixative and his upper and lower jaws were bonded together. Being a good mother, I couldn't do anything for laughing, poor boy is probably emotionally scarred for life now...

Oops kids bless em. 

Baking powder is slightly less dizzy than bi carb ofvsosa as well so try that. 

Made me laugh re polident  , I liken my mouth and saliva at the  momemt t to having a  tube if super glue permanently in my mouth and trying to shove food through it is tiring. 

But roll onnFriday byhe car n us are going to spain for our 10 week trip along with lotions and potions Ensure drinks just in case bottles of  if water for the journey ,hoping to get out in bike and that saliva makes a remarkable comeback .I will  be online still,checking so keep uo the questions .

where in treatment are you kitty

I had a tongue biopsy as I'd had a sore on the side of my tongue for 4 weeks, Razz, and the pain was horrendous,the caresheet from the Hospital said to  expect some mild pain and discomfort- !! So I  googled Pain After Tongue biopsy and it led me to this Forum where I found some wonderful support while I was waiting for the results.

And then D day came - and it showed no signs of malignancy.  But the Dr couldn't sign me off as the area is just not healing and he asked me to come back in 6 weeks.

So  really I have no right to be here any  more, but the kind people on here said I should still let them know how I get on so I am still here and still getting great advice about how to deal with the soreness.

I am just blown away by how generous and kind people are, no self-pity despite the awful things they are going through. Wish I had a magic wand....
