Palifermin

It’s an injection I’ve heard used in stem cell transplants but I’ve never heard of it being used in oral mucositis. Ask your oncologist?

Have you been busy on Google? 

Edit. I looked it up for you. Contraindicated in anything but haematological malignancy. 

Additionally I’ve looked up TBI. Total body irradiation which is given maybe only once or for a maximum of three days. Maybe the drugs effect is short acting and it’s hugely expensive.  We get hit thirty times.

not really, these things just seem to jump out at me.. lol

I was just looking for recipe ideas, and all of a sudden.. ooh, what's this then? It just happens.. lol

How are you enjoying your break? 

still can't enjoy a proper bath yet.. Peg needing constant cleaning .. 4 times a day.. is just keeps oozing and gunking.. so even though I'm trying to relax there's so much to keep my eye on..

Yuk! Poor you. Ask if you can bathe anyway. Will it leak inwards? Probably not but what do I know? 
I lovec my bath. I fell asleep in it a few times. 

Hi try not to read into everything yes there’s side effects yes you’ll get some of them but no one gets all of them. Worrying and wittering won’t change a thjng baby steps got me through it and one day at a time don’t overthink it. Trust your team.
