I went to an internist, he had me take PREVPAK for 14 days, but my breath is still really bad!! What can I do? And please dont suggest brushing and flossing…this is an internal problem…

I am desperately seeking the names of physicians who can treat a parasitic disease which has settled in my mouth, throat, larynx, sinus cavities and now moving into my ears and eyes. For 5 years now, the pain is getting progressively worse. Currently, I have excruciating pain in my mouth, I am having increasing difficulty breathing and swallowing and this is getting critical since I am wheezing with each breath. I have very serious underlying health problems that include multiple congenital heart problems and Hepatitis C contracted via a blood transfusion.

I cannot eat without being in almost unbearable pain. This pain is NOT caused by my teeth but by the “strands” of slimey, writhing things that have “hooks” that pierce my upper palette, lips and tongue. These “strands” come up my throat into my mouth and nose.

I have been to many infectious disease doctors and dentists who diagnosed everything from “in my head” to dry mouth (Sjorgren’s syndrome). These conditions, along with neuralgia, were subsequently ruled out and I told the by the doctors that they did not know the cause of my complaints. The only treatment that “worked” was when I treated for the giardia lamblia parasite. The anti-parasitic medicine for that did start to affect this parasite. But it was not the correct medication.

I fear that this situation is out of control and I am desperate for a physician/medical center who is an expert in parasitic infections, diagnosing and treating them. A research scientist is not the answer – I need a doctor who actively does more lab testing than fecal samples and can treat this problem.

Hi There Looking For A Good Remedy For Bad Breath. Any Ideas? I Brush My Teeth Twice A Day.

I met this really nice guy but one problem, he has really bad breath. We have only been dating a couple of months. Should I tell him and if so, how do you tell him without hurting his feelings?

I have really bad breath especially after I eat, can anyone give me some suggestions to get rid of it? I already tried all of the special mouthwashes and toothpastes they did nothing. suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Okay…this is a bit of a story so please bear with me. When I was 18 (now 24) I had bronchitis. A few months later my left lung became extremely raw and painful and would rumble, for lack of a better word, when I breathed in. Didn’t do it when I breathed out. I honestly thought that smoking had done this to me. I went to the doctor and asked her if it could be an infection. She said yea it could be, but all she did was take x-rays and told me my lungs looked really bad. I quit smoking and it helped my lung, but only somewhat. It stopped rumbling, but has been raw and hurts when I take a deep breathe ever since. If I push my lung against my ribs, it is so painful I feel as if I’m going to faint. The only way I can describe it is as very raw. I didn’t smoke for 2 years, but my lung did not heal. I thought that I had permanently damaged my lungs from smoking and I was going to have to live with it. About two months ago my lung started to bother me bad again and it was hard to me to get a good breath. And two weeks ago the rumbling started again. I thought it had to be an infection because it feels like mucus is clogging up my lung when I breath causing the "rumbling." Coincidentally, my fiance went to the dentist for a broken tooth and got antibiotics at the same time. I took half of them and my lung completely cleared up. When I ran out, the problem in my lung came right back. So, this has got me 99% convinced that I have had a chronic infection in my lung (maybe bronchitis?) for six years! Also, for the last couple of years my blood pressure that been slightly high and think that the infection has been stopping enough oxygen from getting into my blood. I do not have insurance and that’s why I’m seeking help here. I can get some more antibiotics from family members. Do you recommend this? I may be way off and be completely wrong. I am no doctor. But after the research I have done online and what has come to light recently, I think it’s an infection. If I have had an infection in my lung for 6 years, it is unimaginable what damage it has done and how difficult it will be to fully get rid of. I need some advice. Thanks.

I find this an extremely challenging task whenever i decide to walk around the city I live in to get to places without bad smelling breath. I keep practicing and I am not getting any better…..tips??

Like what are the bad breath ingredients in an onion?
