Strange Sensation In Mouth

<_<

I have NO idea what this is, as I've never experienced it before - but it's VERY annoying !! Last night's dinner was prepared by the other family member that is gluten sensitive. He's not *real* knowledgeable (ex: he thought spelt was a safe grain), but he does pretty darn well. I think I inadvertently got glutened though, despite both of us being careful. I had gas (so therefore, my 3 month old that I'm breastfeeding had painful gas too, and was pretty inconsolable). I also noticed pretty shortly after dinner the sensation in my mouth. The only way I can explain it is on my cheeks and around the front of my mouth near my lip (again, this is all inside my mouth), feels like there's a "coating" on it. It's not painful, but it does have a slightly grainy feeling. When I look in the mirror I don't see anything. I keep trying to rinse my mouth with water and running my tongue along where I feel it in an effort to get rid of the coating feeling, to no avail.

:huh:

Anybody ever hear of this ? What the heck IS this ??

I had a feeling like that all the while I breastfed my daughter except it also extended to the back of my throat. Eventually saw an ear, nose throat guy 'cause I was going nuts, but no one ever found anything. I still have odd 'mouth" reactions to food on occassion-(now I'm going through menopause) I think it might be hormonal. It's very weird, though. Hope it goes away for you soon!

You said "grainy". Does you mouth also feel dry? I get a very dry feeling in my mouth with certain foods that I'm intolerant to. Tapioca does this to me as well as some nuts.

No, that's the weird thing - it felt plenty moist.

The sensation has since gone away - I still have no clue what that was all about. Before it went away though, the underside of my tongue got sore - it kind of felt like the frenulum (the little string that attaches your tongue) felt swollen. I also got kind of a pimple between my right cheek and gum. I've gotten those before (have no clue what those are, either), but I just break it and it goes away.

:blink:

It's just to keep life interesting, I guess ! :lol:

The "pimple" was probably a canker sore...I get them occassionally. You may have had canker sores under your tongue too (canker sores can be like pimples, or can be open sores, or just sore spots)...considering the whole area has mucous membranes, it's not surprising it would react to foods you are sensitive to.

I've had canker sores before...I thought those always hurt ?? This wasn't painful at all.

Maybe they aren't canker sores then? I was told they were (I get those as well as the larger ulcers...and both come on quite suddenly.) I've found they don't hurt as much on the cheek as on the gums or tongue. When they pop they can be a bit more sore.

Maybe it’s too late for replying. 

Dont worry about it. Cooking with buckwheat noodle can get very foamy. After the noodle is cooked you need to wash the noodle properly to remove starch. When I was new to buckwheat noodle I also didn’t knew and got that strange coating in the mouth too.

      My bone structure is disintegrating and I’m having to have my teeth removed

      By trents · Posted

      Staci, take note of the forms of magnesium and zinc I recommended. With some of the vitamins and minerals, the formulation can be very important in how well they are absorbed. Many of the vitamin and mineral products on supermarket shelves are in a form that maximizes shelf life rather than bioavailability which, in your case, would seem to be a critical issue. And with magnesium, if you use the typical over the counter form (magnesium oxide) you may find it has a definite laxative effect (think, "milk of magnesia") simply because it isn't well absorbed and draws water into the colon. Spend some extra money and get quality vitamin and mineral products and research the issue of bioavailability. There are forum members who are knowledgeable in this area who may have recommendations. Do you have Costco stores where you live? Is Amazon available to you?

      Options - 7 year old boy - Helicobacter pylori and serology

      By Kathleen JJ · Posted

      And yes, of course it's better to know and we will adjust.  It's just, he's 7 and in our house we can control what he gets. But he plays soccer 3 times a week and in the changing room the boys share candies. I can and will tell him not to accept them any more, but "mistakes" will be made.   I'm really burdened by the potential social impact for him. He so loves to go to a restaurant as a family - I'll guess that's finished. Going to birthday parties at another kids house? I am reading about Coeliacs and apparently the fact that something as much as TOUCHED something with wheat is enough, even if he doesn't feel the symptoms - how can we control that bar from keeping him locked up?    And the worst worry of all: how do you tell a little boy to do all of this to not have symptoms that he does not have. If he'd been having horrible diarrhea or feeling really tired, we could tell him 'see, you feel so much better now, that kind of food was just not good for your body', but now, what will our argument be? For clarity: of course we will put him on the diet, I am not saying I don't believe in the necessity of that, it is just that it will be quite a stretch to 'sell' it to him 😞

      I’m 41. You have helped me achieve the goals of finding a way of getting nutrients into my body so I will see how it works for me. Thank you so much.

      By Kathleen JJ · Posted

      Thank you for your reaction. The reference values are both "<10", although I found a medical paper from Netherlands (I'm Belgian) who use the same values and there the see a positive daignosis as twice more then 200 and a positive biopsie. I didn't see how to change this in my original message, sorry...

      Options - 7 year old boy - Helicobacter pylori and serology

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi Kathleen Welcome to the forum. I am based in the UK so I am just picking this post up before our US based moderators appear.  I think they will want to know the lab values of both of the figures you have provided us with (min/max reading) as they tend to vary - could you post those for us, please? We see a lot of coeliacs who also have helicobacter pylori on this forum.  I am not sure how that would reflect in the blood results so I will leave this to be answered by my more experienced colleagues @trents or @Scott Adams. Obviously, you won't really know for sure where things stand until you have your meeting with the consultant.  I am sorry that you have to wait, but it will be worth knowing one way or another.  Apart from his recent gastric issues, it is fantastic to know that your son is otherwise a picture of health.  But it is worth bearing in mind that undiagnosed coeliac disease can cause health issues in the longer term, so far better to know now if he does turn out to have coeliac disease and adapt your son's diet accordingly, before other health issues have a chance to appear.
