@jimhd and @jesfactsmon Here's one for you guys...although I do remember this happening prior to my neuropathy diagnosis, I have tongue flares which leave my tongue highly sensitive and painful to salt and acidic foods, almost raw and any textured food (ex: raisins) scraping over it hurts. I went to an ENT doc about 4 years back and no reason was derived. My neuro just listened, along with all my other symptoms, and culminated SFN. My tongue gets inflammed and feels like (I would think anyway) a cat's tongue....you know, dry, like sandpaper. I literally ice it down or let it wag in a cold cup of water to soothe it. I know, TMI!!! Lol! Hey - if we cant laugh, we cant live. Anyway, I regress from high sodium, acidic fruits, tomatoes, etc... and let it ride out but, it's not pleasant. I used to chalk my oddities up to me being a "delicate flower" but, now I go with that damn neuropathy of mine as the culprit! What a pain in the #*@!!! 🙃
