Hi, Jayne-
Yes, I had a sore nose, but I think yours might get sorer since they are probably targeting your nasal area more than they were mine. I had mouth sores pretty badly, though...again, yours may be different as they are targeting a different area for you. I relied on my pain meds and my topical gel (I forget the name) to help me through! I did find that using a warm vaporizer in my bedroom helped a lot with breathing (which became difficult through the nose). I also ended up drinking a lot of dietary supplements (I don't know what you have in the UK -- we have Boost and Ensure and Carnation instant Breakfast High-Calorie) instead of trying to eat food that needed chewing. I wish you the best with your treatment -- write anytime with more questions!
