Hi, a friend of mine was recently diagnosed with ascute leukemia and the doctors have given him about a year to live. he is 70, and receiving some type of oral chemotherapy. He has sores and a horrible taste in his
mouth.These are lesions that slightly bleed especially on the inside of his cheeks. The doctor who recently checked him out does not think this is thrush, because he could not see anything white in his mouth. I am not so sure about that. Since these sores, and he says they are not terribly painful, but very much bother him are a big deal, I am wondering what may help him, and also what this could be if not thrush. at the moment he refuses to eat anything but drinks only milkshakes and really cold milk. Any advice?
