Mouth Ulcers

On TV, if someone is suspected of murder then the police will take a swab of the inside of their mouth to check their DNA against that found at the scene of the crime. I guess the inside of the mouth is an area where cells are sensitive.  The methotrexate chemo blasted all cells everywhere which is why there is a long list of side effects such as losing hair and getting mouth ulcers. Complaining about mouth ulcers seems trivial given the various other ailments I have but the other ones don’t actually hurt and if you’ve ever had a mouth ulcer, then you’ll be able to imagine having a mouth full of them is worth a moaning blog post. I have Difflam mouthwash but its just a matter of time to wait for them to go. In the meantime, no smiling/eating/ talking.  And for the record, I’m not suspected of murder.
