Burning Mouth Syndrome. I have it very severe.

My burning mouth started a couple months back and has gradually gotten worse. It is now to the point where my mouth hurts so bad! I have Idiopathic Intercranial Hypertension and was unaware that the meds could wreak havoc on your mouth. I have had these sores that come and go. They form on my tongue and it looks as though it was burned or scraped in a spot. So far it seems to reappear on the same spots. I get 1/2 of them. Does anyone else get sores too?

Sorry for your pain. I get what I call canker sores and cold sores (fever blisters) when I slack up on taking l-lysine 1,000 mg once or twice daily. If it gets too much for the lysine then I use Valtrex 500 - 1000 mg as mine seems to be herpes simplex 1 related. I had not gotten these sores for many years until the burning mouth started up now it’s a regular aggravation. Have you ever been tested for the herpes simplex one?
