I am taking 3000 mg per day Amoxicillin and 500 mg per day of Augmenton. I take vitamin c, vitamin d, 1 million probiotics per day,

Also, magnesium, armour, and I think that is all I am taking.

My tongue feels like I have burnt it on something. Almost everything I eat irritates it so bad I can hardly eat or drink.

It seems to be spreading to the corners of my mouth. Feels like each corner of my mouth has a cold sore forming, cracking and burning and it feels swollen a little, just like a cold sore.

What is this??? Has anyone ever had this before?

Thanks!

Oops, I have also been taking Diflucan every day for about a week, just in case it is yeast. I can't tell it is helping.

I usually take Nystaten daily except when I pull off to take Diflucan.

Did I mention that I am also taking an iron pill?

It may or may not have anything to do with the Rx. I've had "burning mouth" issues - and not connected to the Rx you mention. And I know that candida was not connected, in my case (as I have no issue with that since not doing any abx).

"Burning mouth" is not uncommon to lyme. It can be from nerve damage - &/or many other factors. Here are some things I found of help, SeaBuckthorn oil to be the best, even with immediate relief.

Vitamin B complex or Vitamin B12 deficiency can cause this.

Razzle is spot on. I had this really really bad. Methyl Protect along w/ additional B's has taken it away.

The B's suggested might be best in Sublingual form so that mouth tissue can better absorb. But be sure they are gluten free. Some are not.

B-6 and B-12 are often made in sublingual form, however, a full B-complex is usually in a regular pill form. It may be that not all the B's would be good for direct mouth contact, though.

It is also a menopause (low estrogen) symptom
