Does anyone suffer with mouth ulcers, have had some for 3 weeks now
I had almost permanent ulcers until I was placed on warfarin. I was a symptom I never associated with APS and used to get a steroid gel from my dentist.
It was ages before I noticed they had quietly gone.
Professor Hughes was intrigued to hear mine have gone on warfarin.
I have just stated to get them.... kind of always had them on and of over the years, just never really made the connection to APS. I see the doctor again in a couple of weeks, so will add that to my list of things to ask!
I have had mouth ulcers for as long as I can remember. About 10 years ago I heard about taking Vitamin B50. I started taking it and have almost no ulcers since then. When I bite my mouth it used to take 10 - 15 days to heal, now it is gone in a week at the most. Can't rave about it enough. I have been taking warfarin for about 30 years. I did not notice any change as a result of the warfarin on my mouth ulcers.
Yes, I was plagued with mouth ulcers prior to being put on Warfarin. Now that I think of it they have gone but they were painful at the time.
Both mouth and nasal ulcers are also a classic symptom of Lupus (SLE), as are dry eyes. I too always have some ulcers which can be painful. I can sympathise with you as they make me feel really run down. Usually they are a sign that I am in a Lupus flare up. But it has been interesting reading how many people with APS are affected too. xxx
