Your OPL symptoms must be very uncomfortable! Has any treatment been attempted? My doctor prescribed a mouth rinse that helped to some extent. I noticed additional improvement when I took a long course of prednisone for another condition. In addition, there was some symptom relief when using a baking soda based toothpaste that my dentist explained changed the pH level in my mouth. OLP is, apparently, a chronic condition that probably will not go away but can be managed with these types of measures. I hope you find some relief soon!
