    HI

    you can get some mouthwash Difflam which is really good on script (which are now free) or ask your chemo nurse  , also pineapple. is very refreshing. as for eyes i can not help as mine just watered , good luck and just keep smiling x

    hi there,

    i agree with jolee, pineapple is wonderful for the horrid taste in your mouth. and also watermellon. my mum makes me watermelon juice, which is lovely.

    sorry cant suggest anything for hte eyes, as i have watery eyes and dont know what to do myself. if i get any information will be sure to share with you.

    Hi, I suffered from dry eyes and found that normal eye drops worked wonders, I used the non branded Hydra melose (false tears) rather than the branded Oprex at three times the price.

    My taste buds changed and I ended up with bland food which suited me, you're body will tell you need. Good luck x
