My mouth sores began after the 1st week of radiation. I also had a case of thrush which diflucan cleard up pretty nicely. I wish I had a good fix for the mouth sores but I don't. Mine just get progressivly worse. The inside of my lips and under my tongue are the bad spots. They aren't particularly painful. I do use a lot of magic mouthwash. I have 6 more radiation treatments left. I'll just tough it out.
I hope things go well for you.
