Does anyone have any good potions to get rid of this horrible taste in my mouth? I just want my saliva back! I have no issues with mouth sores but having lots of issues with this taste and sensation in my mouth.

Biotin helped me. I got a bottle free from my dentist, because his assistant found it helped when she had chemo.

I still have dry mouth 15 months post chemo. Chemo destroys all of your cells good and bad. You can try the Biotin mouthwash but it did not work for me. I found I just needed to drink tons of water. I did swish coconut oil around my mouth to help with the mouth sores.

See a nutritionist. He or she can give you suggestions. Most insurance will pay for it as part of your care. For example mine suggested not to cook or use any utensils with metal in them. Only use plastic. That really helped me when going through chemo.
