For over four months now I have been dealing with what my dentist calls
burning mouth syndrome. I had never heard of it until my tongue/lips began
to feel like I had chugged scalding coffee. Any food even slightly spicy is
just torture. Even cold water and toothpaste feel like hot pepper. The doc
has given me diflucan and prednisone and neither helped. Biotene is the
only toothpaste that doesn't make my eyes water. I can only tolerate bland
food ....and I can barely taste anything. It's about to bring me down. It's
not enough that everyday is a stretch of hell, we have to pile more sh-t on
top of it. I've had about all I can take guys. I say a prayer every night
that I won't wake up the next morning. I'm sorry to lay all this on you
guys. Some of you have problems that make mine look tiny. Thanks for
listening/reading my ranting. God bless each of you. Larry
