Apparently...
Jan. 22nd, 2012 02:05 amI'm in the certain percentage of people with fibromyalgia who develop burning mouth syndrome... It's going away, but I think I might speak to the doctor if it happens again or lasts longer.
I was on my third episode of this in something like 6 years, and taking a multivitamin a day seems to be helping it... so it could also be a zinc deficiency.
Also, I wonder if the fact that my steroid inhaler (for my asthma) having been brought to a dosage twice as much as I've been taking for the past 4 months has something to do with it.
It's mild, but my mouth feels either minty cool or cinnamon-y warm randomly, for no reason. It's worse when I eat or drink, except if I eat a banana, which seems to soothe it.
It's really strange.
