Hi,

I do brush my tongue, though not with a tongue scraper but something on the back of my toothbrush that is supposed to be for your tongue, though I don't think it does a ver good job really. I think I'll see if I can get a proper tongue scraper from the pharmacy next door to the doctors tomorrow.

You're right, worrying just makes things a whole lot worse. When I was having heart palpitations a few months ago, I got all kinda of silly thoughts in my head and I couldn't sleep properly and felt incredibly nauseas almost constantly. I still don't know what was causing the palpitations, they just suddenly stopped one day.
