Hi just wondering if anyone having chemo is getting black gums i noticed this whilst brushing my teeth not brushing them hard either didnt know if this was a common side effect ? 

Many thanks  

  • Hi , I was wondering how you’re getting along. I saw that suggested you speak to your oncologist about your gums and was just wondering how you were. I haven’t had chemo myself or the side effect you’ve described, but it sounds like your having a tough time at the moment. 

    Take care KT
