Thats great that you were able to decrease the patch to 50. My husband is still on 100 for the patch and oxycodone. His last treatment was August 11th and having a lot of mouth sores and jaw pain they took an xray the other day to see if there is a possible infection in the jaw so he is on a steroid right now for the swelling. So for 9 days out you are doing great hang in there. Brian uses bioteen mouth wash and toothpaste which is great for dry mouth and very gentle on the mouth sores.
Hang in there
