Joined: May 2009 Posts: 27 | Big changes from last week. Tongue very swollen and raw, difficult to drink water, much less instant breakfast. MD gave me a RX for liquid Lido/Benadryl and liquid pain med of Loritab. I am hesitant to take the Loritab except at night.
I could be mistaken but part of the tongue problems could be from chewing on my tongue at night since it is so swollen. Has any one experienced that or used a mouth guard at night?
