Of those who have responded to our mucositis survey, more than 50% do NOT believe there are adequate solutions to address treatment-related mouth sores/pain. Our survey is still open & we are looking forward to hosting a conversation forms.gle/sDJS6mgsSKKFYifu7 #MakeCancerLessShitty

Mucositis is a fancy term for mouth sores or mouth pain & a fairly common side effect of some cancer treatments. Have you experienced mucositis as a treatment side effect? Want to tell us about it & how it affected your life? #MakeCancerLessShitty #SuppOnc forms.gle/stddA4ZSntoJywP79

In addition to Facebook, we are now on Instagram at instagram.com/makecancerless… Facebook doesn't like the word "shitty" so we're spelled a little wonky there but Instagram seems to understand the need to UNcensor the patient experience when it comes to cancer! #MakeCancerLessShitty
