It like a film over my tongue that seems to feel like little pieces of tissue that comes off. I do not have any white streaks like you said you had its just this annoying stuff floating around on my tongue.
Any advise you can give would be greatly appreciated.
God bless you for taking the time to help, Hope to hear from you soon

Patti, I checked with my neighbor this a.m., her condition is different.  There are so many kinds<br>of oral conditions.  I would still research the internet for this condition.<br>I will also.  If you have a moment and give me some medical terms of the condition.<br>Don't worry that only makes it worse.  Sounds like you need to find the two lpiece kit that<br>has a tongue brush and scraper in it that cleans the tongue.<br>I wonder if this condition is coming from your stomach.  Now I a guessing without all the information.<br>Just a thought.   Elizabeth<br><br> <br><br><br><br><br><br> <br><br><br><br><br><br> <br><br><br><br><br><br>

Hi Elizabeth Thanks for taking the time to email me back. My sister in law deals with oriental medicine and she said she thought it was the acid from my stomach. To this date no doctor has given me any medical term other than like I said family doctor said thrush but the medication did nothing then he recommended me to a ENT. He saw me twice gave me a thorough exam into my throat and mouth. He couldn't come up with any thing but he did say if you want I can give you a referral to Mayo. Then to my dentist and he said get a tongue brush which I did but it doesn't take care of my problem. So here I am worried sick that it is something serious and no one can tell me anything. Any help you can give me would be truly appreciated. I'm not real good on the computer so if you don't mind researching it a little more maybe you can come up with something. Do you still have the condition or have you found something that will help or get rid of it.
God Bless you sweetheart for your help

Mine started in my stomach with a burning at the top of my stomach. From stress. Then I had a puddling
of thick salvia that would accumulate at night and then this would start an irritation under my stomach
basically eating away the tissue. I believe your sister in law to be correct. Most things origin is the
stomach. This is the first doctor I saw and he said after much testing it wasn't acid reflux and to
see another doctor. Could be an enzeme imbalance but that would be like finding a needle in
a hey stack. I will see a doctor outside of Baltimore MD that my John Hopkins surgeon recommended
he deals with oral mouth issues.
There is also a doctor at MCV in Richmond. He said it came from the immune system.
It seems stress goes to the gut and immune system and this is a result.
As for my case I know mine came from the gut and went up as the pain was in the top of the
gut first.
There are many types of oral mouth disorders and it sounds like you are having some type of
disorder with symptoms in a very early stage. It takes some time to develop into something
more serious. It took me 2 years to develop the tongue cancer stage 1 superficial.
Stop worrying it only makes it worse. Relax and calm down. If you do and take an anti anxiety
drug such as clozapam at night and it goes away (Stay away from dairy) Then you will
know you have diagnosed your problem. Watch your diet. Eat green food, make smoothies
with a smoothie machine from Wal Mart that is $15. Use organic foods, stay away from meats
and hard to digest foods like meat. Fish is easy to digest. Smoothie with apple, celery, kale,
heaping tablespoon of "Trivia" in all smoothies. New research reveals the anti acid are not the
problem, we don't have enough acid. The pharmacy companies are making a killing off of us.
This doesn't mean you should eat a lot of acid foods, because cancer can't survive in an
potatoe with " Earth Balance" soy free plant based butter (Wal Mart) Reduce the stress, which goes
straight to your stomach. I still have the lichen planus, the kind that is difficult to get rid of, someone
else has it and it went away. I understand it is Immune system related.
I will be back Friday. Stop worrying. Elizabeth

Thank you so much for your email. I have so many encouraging words from different people and I forget (sorry) if I replied to yours.
My question....do you still have the same white tenticles on your tongue or did you find out what it was and got treat for it. If you got treated for it what was the procedure? I am still trying to deal with my tongue issue.
Your fed back would be welcome and again thank you so much for your input
Patti

It is really a coinsidence my therapist just gave me a perscription for that medication. After I have finished this to you I am going into town to pick it up.<br>I hope you are well and although its easy to say relax you know yourself its hard so may this medication will help. By the way I live in Florida and there is a Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville about an hour and a half from here. But my husband wants me to wait before making an appointment saying that stress and anxiety is my problem. So I will do like he wants me to do but after taking this medication and I still have this slimmy stuff on my tongue I will make an appointment at Mayo.<br>God Bless you Elizabeth and stay in contact. I want to help you like you have helped me.<br>Patti<br>---- Mayo Clinic Connect wrote: <br><br>

Hi Patti, I am thrilled that you are taking action to be an advocate in your health care. I am so proud
of you. One thing I forgot to mention is for you to stay away from sugar or anything that turns
to sugar except if it matabolizes slowly. Such as a sweet potato. Bread is a no no or sugar products
produce yeast. Pasta produces yeast. I have had this since 2013. I am going to see a doctor on
Friday to co ordinate my care. It is important to brush your tongue and use the plastic scraper this
keeps the mouth clean. I use Biotene toothpaste which helped with the irritation and the burning
I was experiencing. Please try to relax and the end of the day how much did what we worried about
matter. My husband's personality was always so intense and mine also. We are not together
he fried his body out with his intensity. Relax and know that you are resolving your situation early
and you will be fine. Oh, also, you have to Relax when you take anxiety med at bedtime and let the colozapam sp_ take over.....relax take a warm bath........relax.....God loves you, He always has and He always will....... .................Elizabeth

@elizabethbryant Hi Liz: Please let us know how your doctor appointment goes on Friday. I'm hoping that you have a kind doctor who listens and is responsive to your needs. Teresa

What a sweet lady you are, But you know how hard relaxing is. I worry all the time about this situation but like I said my husband is my support he is so good to me. <br>Please make sure you let me know how you got on at the doctors. I am giving myself at my husbands request 2 more weeks before I make an appointment with Mayo and to be sure I will keep you posted.<br>God Bless<br>Patti<br>---- Mayo Clinic Connect wrote: <br><br>
