One thing that is happening is usually after i eat i get small water blisters popping up all over. roof of mouth, by throat, under bottom of lip, etc. they don't hurt unless near throat. they then often just go away. Any thoughts?

It sounds like maybe you are having a reaction to whatever food you are eating.
