My family and my dog doesn't want to kiss me =( I hope it is just from tx.

Hey your not alone!!!! It comes from with-in and not just in your mouth area. Take my word for it!! I take my grill out and scrub the shit out of them and low and behold it's still underdog breath! Oh beings I ve been off TX since last yr, Its alot better now. So it is from the TX my friend!!

Tatt your so funny yet through it theres always a cool message..Hi Rebecca I finished yesterday..I still cant believe it...anyway Hi Jeannie and yes...the meds made my mouth terrible I did everything you said biotene too.....I havent kissed my husband since last year..hahaha..yet watch out BABY cause here I come..and wait until my legs are no longer weak...you guys may not see me for awhile....woooohooooooooooooo

Well, thankfully, no one has complained yet...or they are too scared to tell me! LOL I do have a hard time tasting food, everything seems to be a bit off....but it has helped in that I have lost weight. Have you tried getting peppermint losenges? I know my nurse mentioned that. Suck on them just before you eat, or if you feel like you have that bated breath thing!

I have noticed that when I sweat it's foul animal smell of some sort. I've never had this problem before and I assume it's the toxins coming out of my body. No one has said anything about my breath, but it's got me thinking.

I do remember my body smelling like medicine, as for my breath, I remember the riba would make me mouth very, very dried, I hated it, needed to chew gum in the middle of the night to get it to pass or rather relieve it tempararely.

I know that my little dog at the time, definately knew that I was on meds, he smelled it, and was the best little companion to me while on tx.
He was always so quiet, when I was in bed, he would be right there with me, as if he was sick himself, soo cute.

I do urge anyone who is on a journey, especially those who are on treatment for a year, to get a little dog to keep them company, they are a Godsend.

Now how did a thread posted for bad breath, turned into getting a little dog on tx. lol
Jeannie,
Did you check it out in the Survival Guide?
If not and you do, please update us on it if you feel up to it.
How's your breathing today?

Love & Respect,

One day at the time.

Do you know if tic tac's work for that, cause I work with the public, omg.

Similar but not. Boy talk dragon breath whew. and no matter how much water I drink I'm still thirsty and my mouth is as dry as the sahara.

I am freaked out too! OMG I work with little kids and you all know they don't have a problem telling you your breath stinks. I sure hope I don't get this. I better start praying now! I will say a prayer for you too!

Thanks for the info on bad breath...food has been tasting funny to me...now I have another thing to stress about!!!!
