Hope it goes well for you! A long journey. May everything go smoothly.
Thanks
Thanks @timerdude sorry its taking me so long to get back with you. I still have the same condition it hasn't gotten any worse and no better either. I to fear there is something "wrong" but everyone I have seen said no. The ENT my dentist. So Like you I am trying to deal with this on a daily basis but it does worry me. Something must be wrong but what I don't know. Hope yours have gotten better give me any advise you can it would be greatly appreciated.
I would tell you to Listen, google lichen planus and see if your condition looks like the condition<br>in your mouth. I learned more from the Internet research than from the doctors. Friends<br>and family have said to me why why could the doctors not have googled this as we<br>without a medical degree have found out what it is why could they have not done the same.<br>The big question...that can take your life.<br><br><br> <br><br><br><br><br><br> <br><br><br><br><br><br> <br><br><br><br><br><br>
Thanks for you advise but I don't have any of the systems you discribe. Its just this film on my tongue that is white and collects more at the back of my tongue. I am trying to work with this but can't seem to get much advise from others. You are an angel for trying to help and I really do appreciate it. Any thing new that you find out would be greatly appreaciated.<br>Patti<br>---- Mayo Clinic Connect wrote: <br><br>
Do you still have the condition on your tongue? You saying revoked it.....I don't understand what you are saying. My ent did swabs of my tongue and all came back negetive. So what do you think is the cause of this.
Any help would be so appreciated
Thank you Patti
What treatment did you have for your tongue. No one has suggested any treatment. Do you still have your white "ikey
tongue on did the "treatment end it?
Thanks so much for your help

BRIT PLEASE DESCRIBE YOUR SYMPTOMS AGAIN. MY TONGUE WAS SWABBED<br>ALSO FOR YEAST AND IT WAS NOT THRUSH. THAT IS NOT ALL THAT NEEDS TO<br>BE DONE TO DIAGNOSIS THE CONDITION. YOUR CONDITION FROM WHAT I REMEMBER<br>SOUNDS MORE LIKE MY NEIGHBOR'S CONDITION. SHE WENT TO RICHMOND VA<br>AND WAS DIAGNOSED CORRECTLY. I WILL RUN YOUR SYMPTOMS BY HER, HER DOCTOR<br>WAS EXCELLENT FOR HER CONDITION BUT WAS IN RETIREMENT WHEN MY CONDITION<br>WAS DIAGNOSED.

<br><br> BRIT, yours sounds different than mine as it is on the top of the tongue, mine was white streaks<br>under the tongue which is lichen planus that turned into cancer. My cancer surgery was April 2016<br>and it is an ongoing treatment and requires medical intervention. "Your CANNOT let it turn into cancer<br>and it can be prevented" mine was from negligence on the medical end. It was totally preventable,<br>it is vital for survival that it not turn into cancer. My condition was a result from overload of stress<br>If you are stressing out over this you are making the condition worse. You are in a good place<br>as you are receiving information that I didn't receive from doctors.<br><br><br><br><br><br> <br><br><br><br><br><br> <br><br><br><br><br><br>
The end of March.
