Re: Xuria
Thanks scientist and worthatry.
I totally agree that if I don't do anything about it then it's not going to go away, but I'm right at the start of my "trying to sort it out" journey...I only went to the Dr for the 1st time on Monday and I've also spoken to my Mum. I've no idea on the size of my blood cells or on any allergies (apart from white wine which gives me a rash on my chest).
Scientist, I'm London based!
Symptoms which I would say that I have
Bad taste;
Tonsil stones (smell is significantly reduced when they are gone);
Pungent smell when tonsils squeezed/fiddled with, gets worse with prolonged fiddling around with tonsils, although if tonsillolith is removed, then it gets significantly better/non-existent;
Sometimes thick phlegm gets stuck in my throat which can be hard to swallow and which will occasionally smell;
Yellowish/whiteish white coating on my tongue, especially on LHS at the back near tonsils;
Breath sometimes smells of sewage;
Self Confidence issues;
Using therabreath (contains chlorine dioxide) although not really any help;
Tongue not normally smelly;
Burps don't smell;
Quite often get sweaty feet smell (from feet), although no b.o. or other body smells;
Odour is def not fecal;
Definitely not going to the loo anything like as regularly as colon health websites suggest! Probably once every two/three days?
I eat few dairy products (only have soya milk on cereal, not a big cheese fan and don't really eat eggs) and I'm vegetarian (but still eat fish) and not vegan (I don't find that it gets any better when I don't eat fish);
Any ideas?!?!
I've just started taking zinc and B2 (riboflavin) and not yet noticed any reduction in smell, but I'm only on day 2 of this.
Going to see an ENT consultant on Wednesday to see if there is something wrong with my tonsils.
Going to see a nutritionalist, although not yet booked etc. Looking into
colonic courses and massive detox in case there is anything rotting inside me which is toxifying my blood and making me smell.
Going to have allergy tests, again not yet booked, to see whether a change in diet will help me as the only thing that I know that I'm allergic to is white wine.
On contraceptive pill, although I didn't notice that my bb was any better when I wasn't on it.
Thanks v much,
