Hi. I too get these, this is how I was diagnosed I sympathise, yer on ly thing that clears mine is too shock .my system with prednisolone on a staggered dose for 5 days. I am now on a regular 15mg of pred daily and have had 1 flare up. Do u have a rhumie? Maybe speak to them about treating them? I am nowhere near u. But feel free to PM me other email I will send u my email. As I have 3 kids, youngest is 2, so know how hard it is in the middle of a flare xxx

Sometimes if I catch mouth ulcers early, I can shift them with Corosyl mouthwash! Tastes horrible but seems to have the umph to kill the germs causing them.

I've just had a horrid time with mouth ulcers. Yesterday I had an emergency to ENT and they put a scope up my nose!!! Horrid.

They have changed some of my meds to help.

Steroids usually shift this, but for me this time they didn't and they kept getting worse...

It's a horrible thing to have, and unless you suffer with it you have no idea...
