I've read that B12 can causes mouth sores ect and oral thrush.
Many of you have suffered this. So I'm aware of this.
My b12 acute B12 symptoms s didn't involve this apart from a couple of ulcers and the corners of my mouth a bit sore on and off.
After reading this about a 'covid tongue' I'm now wondering g with all the other side effects I've had from the first vaccine it's brought it on.
Susceptibility there now as b12 deficiency symptoms do mimic alot of long covid symptoms. I had oral thrush once before but that made more sense as I'd had two lots of antibiotics and a tooth extraction.
Although I had to have a filling repaired no anaesthetic was used and I wonder just another disruption in my mouth. This is severe and painful. Making me feel ill.
Anyway for information.
I'd never heard of 'covid tongue' which is basically bad oral thrush when your immune system gets a hit.

Seems to vary . Some nothing. Some a mild reaction for 2 days. Some a strong reaction like me. Some react to first or second. My friends seem to have reacted more to 2nd dose of pzifer and if any reaction at all first dose of astra zenica. Was your the pzifer.?
My mum and husband were both fine!! I got the short straw.
Bet you are relieved you've had the full course now for very good protection.
Appears yo be the only way ..Di we csn all try snd get on.
Candida loves acid so sodium bicarb is an excellent treatment. In gut sugars create an acid environment also so sodium bicarb 40mins after meal is good (obviously digestion needs acid to work so Candida is present commensally but the idea is to close it down when digestion is finished otherwise it carries on feeding and growing afterwards)
Nystatin is powerful if the problem is Candida. If immune system has become unbalanced e.g. because of gut overgrowth of yeast or sugar / carb rich diet then these secondary symptoms can happen. It doesn't mean immune system is compromised though. But If say 5 days of nystatin doesn't clear the problem then you need to look at the problem again....
Things in diet as innocent as root vegetables can feed gut yeast - have a look at Candida diets and some of the herbal supplements if you think the gut thing may be happening. Can Defence and Candida Support from Now products both pretty good...
Yeast does not like acid. Yeast is killed by stomach acids. Betaine HCL is part of the supplement regime used to kill Candida along with garlic extracts and other antimicrobials.
Hi, try cutting out on some yeast foods, like bread and gravy? Yeast is the main overgrowth in our gut to start off any oral thrush or candida in ya system.Maybe while it calms down ?
Yes does seem to have changed things for us..I have sympathy as headaches migraine and head pains have been debilitating. I have more head pain now rather than an ongoing throbbing sort.
My head has definitely improved.
I went yo a neurologist specifically for headaches . He said either an ongoing chronic tension sort or vestibukar migrain. I think they changed. So many different sorts .
Was sorting a headache clinic tgen lockdown.
2 neurologists said to me no quick fix. One wanted me on amitriptyline which I did try.
Another propranolol which I didn't.
I woukd research wgars used ti ask the right questions
I akso trued pysio for headaches
The neck stretching exercises I still do .
Mine are connected to vision.
Eyes healthy so must be nerves neurons not connecting.
I think by avoiding artificial light tv reading or trying to has helped symptoms but not really doable cone winter with dark evenings.
Perhais yiu need more sessions with the? Oestiopath you saw for your neck.
One thing is I'm on very few pain killers now thank goodness. Bit scary the alternating and different cocktails I had fir 2 years. Some pains ate not touched by what I use.
Do be careful of rebound headaches with paracetamol.
Neurologists love jumping on that
I stopped all paracetamol for 28 days to prove not a rebound headache!!
Rather than just believe me
Upping but D helped me.
I'm still waiting fir mouth to improve otherwise plan 3 fluconazole tablet bought otc cure all (I hope) looks more lije thrush tgsn it dud at the start .I'm convinced it's because my immune system knocked big time.
I'm taking as few painkillers as possible because I know they're not good. If I am not stressed and after a b12 injection, it resolves so I'm pretty sure it's nerve pain.
I wonder if you got 'further down the path than I did' with b12 symptoms before treatment. I think maybe immune system having problem with vaccine response or trouble calming down again. I don't think non b12 deficient people have these issues so I am definitely not anti vax.
Repaired tooth fallen apart eating a sandwich! Mouth improving but trying to get a repeat prescription as was told yk uses nyston for 10 days and realises day 6 it's nearly finished!!
I'm not Jewish, but I do try to adhere to dietary laws in Leviticus 11. Horseshoe Crab blood in vaccine. Not supposed to eat it? Don't inject that stuff in me! WHY is Horse shoe crab blood IN the vaccine? To DECREASE your immune response to OTHER portion of the vaccine! No shot for me! I'm trying to fight off cancer! I want my immune system running full bore! Ist allergist that saw me 60 years ago BEGGED my mother not to let me have smallpox vaccine. Why? Allergic to the horse blood with which it was made back then. No injections of animal blood for me! Would have killed me outright then, likely would do so now.
God bless you unclebill It’s not just the blood in it it’s the fact it’s changing our dna and I’ve watched 100s of video on tictock and you tube showing the magnet challenge.
You poor thing suffering so badly I have no advice I just want to send you my love and pray you will get through this I’m praying for you and everyone Else who are experiencing these side effects xx
There is a prescription in the US called magic mouthwash. Lidocaine and milk of magnesia that helped me greatly with a related mouth blister condition.
