Hello everyone,
I had an appointment with my specialist yesterday. I am so excited with my results!!! He was very pleased and said, "wow, it looks like you have a whole new mouth!" I mentioned that I am trying an anti-inflammatory diet to which he said that studies don't show that that is helpful, but that that is healthy and he is not against "non-conventional" methods. I think doctors want to treat symptoms rather than find a cause sometimes. My specialist is very good and I trust him, but I want to try to do what I can to take ownership of my condition/body.
So I am dropping down from 4x per day clobetasole on my gums to 3x per day, also using an anti-rejection rinse 3x per week and I will see him in 6 months as opposed to 3 months!
I have been trying to eliminate processed foods as best I can, simple sugars, I use lozenges for dry mouth and have changed my toothpaste from Crest to baking soda toothpaste. I am basically trying what I can to boost my immunity with fresh veggies, fruits, nuts, chia seeds, flax seeds, etc.
I pray that others may have good results soon,
microgirl
