I was suffering from the same symptoms too!!

My doctor thought at first that I am crazy, but eventually did few tests for me, including blood work, an MRI, CTSCAN, urine and stool cultures, and guess what? After reading the results, she looked at me and said: "You are so healthy according to all these tests!" But I was still suffering from the burning of my tongue, throat, and stomach. And because I have the acid reflux problem, she said that this is whats causing the burning of my tongue.
Well, let me tell you, I had noticed that I get this sensation when I eat certain foods, and on other days, I am prefectly normal!! So would you like me to tell you what sort of foods I am talking about?
Here we go, bread, pastas, pizzas. Well! They all contain wheat!!!
I eliminated all the wheat products from my diet, and with the help of the "Carafate" pills that my doctor gave me, I can say now, that I do not feel any burning whether of the tongue, throat, or stomach. But, I still do get it every once in a while if I eat something containing wheat without me knowing about it.
Wheat is found in almost everything on the market. I have to be so careful when I go grocery shopping to find the right things that do not contain wheat!! I altered my diet, and luckily I was able to find products that do not contain wheat.
I know it will take a while to heal my small intestines, but if I can live happily without this sensation of burning of the tongue, I will have to live without all the wheat products. So, I am guessing I am allergic to the gluetin.
I hope that I was of any help to anyone out there wondering if they ever going to find a solution for their burning tongues.

So,do you think that you might be having some sort of an allergy to something? Keep me posted if you figure out what is causing your problem. GOOD LUCK.

I have just been diaganosed wih BMS afer a year of going thru many types of dr. and denists who had no clue what was going on.........i found the exact symptoms i was suffering thru on the inernet and was met with scepticism from all the dental/oral/internists/ent and neurologists that i had seen and they offerd me no hope for my pain and suffering....with no relife in sight ...I finally found my way to Dr Gary Heir yesterday morning and have found the Mesiah!! He told me what my symptoms and what the actual physiological causes of my condidtion are (there are many of us in the population).....though the actual triggers are still bepng researched. (they have a research /study group of 50 BNS patience on the grounds in Newark campus!,)
He has just put me on Klonopin and I have started this moring , this, according to Dr. Heir shows the most promise for managing and keeping the pain down to 50% of what it is.....I am very positive about going thru this treatment and am keeping daily diaries of the pain during the day. I have already had my first cup of coffee and am feeling no burning after taking 1/4 of the pill this morning.

He is a wonderful/intellegent man and teacher and i couldn't reccomend him more highly.....

this is a very specialized field and he is one of the few world reknowned oral facial pain specialists in the country.

Good luck ......there is hope!
