It's awful isn't it? I didn't get COVID until late March 2023 and with it symptoms, one of which was and continues: burning in my mouth and canker sore-like bumps in my mouth. My dentist (whose wife had similar symptoms w/ COVID but hers disappeared) can find no other reason for the continuation. One of my docs prescribed a mouth wash but it doesn't 'go' without great difficult to the area of my mouth impacted (lower jaw and upper right cheek, with some on the left.) It also left my mouth totally numb for too long.
Not exactly what you are experiencing but with similar symptoms. I will see an ENT in a few weeks because of other symptoms that are ENT related and didn't start til COVID.
My greatest frustration is that even the long-COVID specialist I saw said, of course, "no one has presented with those symptoms before" and explaining I'd seen posts here and read medical research papers that did show these, didn't seem to grasp that we should look more into it!
We will all continue to astound the medical community because they are not digging as much as we patients are.
My hope is you and all of us are being the groundbreakers for the next wave.

I hear you about how the medical profession doesn't know what to do with us! I'm not desperate for relief, just becoming impatient with the these symptoms and lack of info.
But what I didn't express in my original post was that every time I get a significant flare up, like now, I think I have covid again!!! I have compromised in laws and a spry 88 year old dad. The last thing I want is to infect them should I have covid again. I've tested so many times!
