I'm from WC. Just thought I'd say "hi" and tell you my weird mouth thing.

I don't have what you are talking about but I do have a strange thing that happens when I don't eat for a while and then finally do.

The roof of my mouth swells up and aches really badly for about 2-3 minutes with each bite of food.

After a while it fades away. It's not very nice when it happens.

This disease and all the coinfections are so odd, I'm getting to the point that if I hear anyone complain about anything, I think to myself "That could be a TBD."

Good Luck,

Do you think it could be a virus?

My son had a viral infection of the roof of his mouth which was extremely painful for him.

The PCP couldn't diagnose it, but the pediatrician knew exactly what it was.

He had a lowered immune system due to steroids for asthma.

Always see your doctor when in doubt, but you might research about natural anti-virals such as:

Olive Leaf Extract
Grapefruit Seed Extract (such as Defense Plus by Nutrabiotics has extra immunne stimulants---it's the best bang for your buck.)

Lysine amino acid capsules
(take on empty stomach with Vit. C
& B6)

Solaray's Beta Glucans - l/3, l/6; stimulates immune system;(not made with oats)

Make sure your zinc levels are adequate.
It takes a while to build up minerals & they're very poorly absorbed.)

But....,if you overdo the zine, then copper is depleted. Best to take all minerals together, but away from ABX.

Hope you find out what's really going there.
Take Care,
Jan

P.S.: This might be too painful, but try those Hall's Zinc Lozenges & follow package directions.
