Just wanted to add/better document some other tactics that I have been using:

Manuka honey seems to have an antibiotic as well as analgesic affect to the oral cavity and my throat. I use three small dollops a day that I let melt in my mouth then swallow once it is completely melted.

After I wake from any significant sleep I do the club soda/selzer water/ brush my teeth blitz, I then use Aloe Vera juice I do one shot glass broken down to 3 swish/sips this is especially important when I wake at the odd ball hour(somewhere between 3-5am) or my night feed as I call it.

Smooth move tea: I usually make a cup with a little extra sugar and honey for the oddball hour. To ease the bowels for the coming day. If the oral pain is too high I may take a swig of BMX prior to feed.


EDIT: also important is I started adding water to my feeding formula... Has helped tremendously I add maybe an additional half of the container size... So 300mil formula 150mil water. Not only has it reduced bloating, but my urine is much cleared and I don't have stomach aches any more, but I do have to feed more often they have me doing 8 formulas a day so I do one every hour or so.
