Delia, I was a big fan of the magic mouthwash, not for pain, but it coated my mouth and gave me comfort. I was a big "heaver" midway thru my treatment. For the most part it was because of all that mucous and flem. Even during chemo, I always chose a private room if it was available with a bed in it. The nurses were understanding when I emptied my stomach into the trash cans or the sink.

He's almost at the end of treatment. It's a relief when treatment is over, but it takes alot to recover from. Soon the throwing up part will be over. Gary is right though. All the effects from treatment don't go away after it's over. It takes a few months to heal up and get better, but it gradually will come.
