@A MyBCTeam Member The oncology team recommended the salt water gargle as a way to avoid mouth sores during chemo. I just made a batch, and put it in a mason jar in the bathroom- then anytime I made a visit, I could wash my hands, then do a rinse! With all the hydrating- I was well over the 5 times daily goal! lol!
I agree with all the tips- but I will add one more. I tried eating with the plastic utensils, but the sensation of the plastic just felt greasy to me- and that was an issue. There are bamboo utensils, or even chopsticks (which with the neuropathy in my hands was extra challenging)- but I found finger foods were a great way to go! Hugs!
The dietician told me to try --- a tsp of salt & a tsp of baking soda mixed in four cups of water - mix well & then take 1 tablespoon of this & gargle with it - after each meal - i did this for two weeks - & i was able to taste again.
The dietician who taught me this said " it can take some people up to a year'...

My oncologist recommended the salt, baking soda, and warm water mouth rinse 5 times a day because the lining inside my mouth has been sloughing off. I keep forgetting to do it--darn chemo brain! Thanks for the reminder to try this.
