More about the Butler Flouride foam - the strength I am using is .9%. The typical "at the dentist office" flouride treatment is 1.1% Quite a noticeable difference. My dentist sells me the stuff at his cost for about 27 bucks a can.

Tip - bring your dental trays when you have your teeth cleaned and have a flouride treatment afterwards.

Nystatin is also typically a "swish and spit". That is some foul stuff to think about swallowing. I liked the Diflucan a lot better and it workd faster.

I vomited every time I used the pink magic - it still worked but I still had to go go through this puking thing. Then I was able to get a milkshake down and some Carnation Instant Breakfast. I couldn't do Boost or Ensure - it made me sick.

I was also on Duragesic patches and had morphine both in liquid and pill form for "breakthrough" pain - like the type you get from trying to swallow anything.

It all worked out though, but it was tough sledding for a while. In hindsite I don't regret not getting a PEG but it took a lot of work, caused a lot of pain and ended me up in the ER twice.

PS Cancer fatigue is a well known side effect and the reason that most of us qualify for SSDI. The chances of having fatigue from this are pretty common regardless of your meds.
