Well our chemo and radiation ended this week. She made it mbut now feels worse than ever. Mucous is killing her.Had done so well with the ensure and water and now not doing either very well. Is on a fentenyl patch(12.5) which seems to keep her in a confused state. Magic mouth wash for the sores. Only lost 6_7 lbs over the 13 weeks. Hate to have her backslide after doing so well. Any mucous hints?
