Hi. Hope everyone is doing well. My problem is not hearing. I completed my last chemo treatment ( chemo) Im still having dry mouth and being dehydrated. I drink and eat foods of liquids contents. What else is there for me to do. I have had a fluid bag twice during treatments. Help

We wish that this would get better for you. I think this has been your worst symptom all along. Your dry mouth should get better soon. If it doesn't, it would be worth talking with your dentist and primary care doctor to make sure that there's not another cause for your dry mouth. Make sure that you're not using mouthwash with alcohol because that can be incredibly drying to the mouth.

Some side effects of cancer treatments take their time to show up. 1 yr. & 2 mos. in my nails have suddenly gone bad. Chipping & peeling with cuticles all infected. Feels like paper cuts on your finger tips. Very painful.

Oof. This sounds hard. Endocrine therapy can affect the nails, and of course, that is prescribed for a long time. Chemotherapy affects on nails usually show up earlier. There are other things that can cause nail problems, so you may wish to talk with your primary care doctor.
