Minnie,

My tongue is still very sensitive to things that are too salty, too acidic, too abrasive, too hot...the list goes on. I also agree with the comment about needing to get food particles outof the way quickly, because they seem to cause irritations if I don't.

That being said -- it sounds as though several weeks have gone by since you saw the doctor about this, so if you're not seeing improvement, I'd suggest having him look again.
