burning tongue and vitamin d

the other symptom that makes me worry is the twitching in my muscles, in my tongue and pain in my back and arms. I had many appointments with many doctors. I had blood tests, MRI of brain and spinal cord, EKG and all are normal. My vitamins level are too. I am worry if it is AlS with these respiratory and weakness problems but my doctor don't even hear it. He told me that i shouldn't have an EMG because he doesn't see any atrophy.

In the beginning I had a burning sensation in the middle of my tongue,with swelling the doctor prescribed antibiotics, did not get better, he stated I had a cut on my tongue. I went to my regular doctor and he said my tongue looked fine and told me not to worry he took blood work for diabetes and anemia both came out fine. 1 week later my tongue still hurt so i went back to the first doctor he gave me more antibiotics 2 weeks worth did not get any better.

You symptoms of a burning tongue could be due to vitamin deficiency. It could also be due to trauma or thermal injuries. Sometimes it could be a fungal infection. You will need to consult your primary care physician for proper assessment. In the meantime you can try warm salt water gargles and betadine mouth washes. And take a balanced diet rich in plenty of fruits and vegetables. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.

Try biotene mouth spray or gel to moisten your mouth.

For the very first symptoms I ever got before the extreme drying out became unbearable, was a very sore mouth and throat, tightness and burning, tingling too. Then it moved to my eyes, and then everywhere else. Sjogren's is another autoimmune disease and could be a possiblility for you. It is very hard to detect in the early stages however, it has taken 2 years for me to get diagnosed as it creeps in on you slowly. But it might be worth you mentionning it to your doc. Hope this helps.

They certainly can be a factor. Ask to be put on high vitamin d and vitamin c. These symptoms sound like a really bad fungal attack and you need to see your doctor immediately and get checked for this and for mold illness. Mold illness is sometimes the cause of candida type fungal attacks.

Soon my hands and fingers became really painful and would sometimes twitch and this horrible ache and burning nerve pain is now all over my body. My hands always hurt and the other aches and pain are mainly in my ankles, knees and butt - it's horrible my body feels on edge and my throat feels w word. Can anyone relate to this? I would be really grateful if you could let me know what you think as my doctor has so far been very unhelpful.

i use peroxide to brush my teeth because i have sores that come and go on the right side of my mouth to the gums and underneath and along side my tongue on the right side. i had a dentist tell me this was more than likely a vitamin deficiency of some sort but after all this time i tend to think it is possibly an acid surplus. i have been on celebrex for joint pain, effexor for a spastic colon, and the only timing i can relate all of this to is the death of my mother at Christmas 2008.

My GP recommended B-12 and Zinc vitamins, tested me for diabetes which was negative. Regardless of regimen, no relief and burning tongue continues.

Headache discomfort usually comes in morning and/or evening. Relieved with ibuprofen and Xanax and/or therapeutic chiropractic massage.

There are two types of units: Conventional Units (United States customary units) and SI Units (or Système Internationale - most scientists and most countries use SI units).

For the past six months I have been experiencing aches in my mid back that sometimes if aggravated radiates to shooting pains and ache in my ribs. My forearm started aching but I thought nothing of it.

Thanks for responding Jan .... yes, it is a horrible feeling .... I am the same way - I go for about a week without it and then it comes back.

Numbness in my hands and feet that has never gotten any better but progressively getting worse along with the joint pain.
