Hello my friend,

I used Biotine toothpaste and wash and after my first cycle, my mouth sort of toughened up and it went away throughout the rest of my treatment. I would take a pain killer if it were affecting me to the point I couldn't get the recommended amount of sleep. It's also really stressful on the body to be in pain. I took Tramadol which isn't as strong but took the edge off.

By my last chemo I was miserable, miserable and finally got a Rx for pot which helped a lot.

Send me a PM if you need some help on a weekend with anything. I'd be glad to get some shopping done or whatever you need.

Love,
-Julie
