Hi,

As your history is cancer-related and radiation based. It is due to that gastrointestinal tract has got some damage. As soon it returns to healthy you will relieve. Bad breath is also due to GIT disorder. You need anti-acids for some time and mouthwash.

However, take light foods, avoid acid causing foods and if you are smoking quit it. You also reduce intake of coffee and sugars in the diet. Take probiotic in the diet. I suggest you report to the emergency room as well for a checkup and accordingly they will prescribe medicines. For bad breath try Chlorhexidine mouthwash. If you have any carious tooth restore it and get scaling done.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
