Bad Breath Halitosis Forum

That is the thing, I am told I actually smell delightful in every way. What is with nose rubbing to an odor anyhow? My boyfriend says it is in no way related to anything that smells bad and he loves the way I smell. Are nose rubs always the main symptom???

Hi all, I have not been on the site for awhile. Trying to avoid depression etc. I have been told by EVERYONE now that I do not have ANY bad breath at all and that they are hurt, upset and at times angry because they feel like I am calling them liars. I am dating a man now. He is a bit older than me ...

Are you also addressing candida? So gluten free, probiotics, dairy free, bentonite clay with fiber supplement? How are you cleansing your liver? Do you have liver issues? Thanks!!!

@FedUp - I wish and do hope this is just a phobia or that my breath is not as bad as I think it is. Unfortunately, it seems like 85-90% of people do rub their noses. I do not rub my nose if someone has bad breath so I feel mine must be gagging them. I also get throat clearning, sniffling. I have bee...

The doctor looked at my tongue the other day after my antibiotics for tooth extraction and agreed to put me on Diflucan 150mg for 14 days. I am currently doing this while I wait for help in getting an endoscopy and colonoscopy. Money is tight, taking milk thistle for the liver, do I need to follow a...

@Breath - I was told previously, while actively drinking alcohol during a relapse that I had halitosis, confirmed by 2 docs and 1 psyc doc. I am now being told I do not have the condition at all by everyone I have asked. I have been out on a couple of dates but feel really nervous. People still rub ...

I am in central Florida, near the Orlando area. Already had one meet up - they did not have any bb that I could smell at all and said the same about me. Would like to meet more folks to see if they can detect my bb. Also, would be nice to meet people that understand the trama this gives us at times....

@Stankie - so what is it that you are saying? That your bad breath is on and off and you can tell when it smells bad? Or are you saying your head is playing tricks on you and when you think it is bad you notice the nose rubs, throat clearing etc? Please clarify. I get plenty of nose rubs and throat ...

Very interesting Stankie - I guess we could try to see if that particular infection would cause odor. I have heard of this proceedure. For those of us who have baterial imbalance this could have great potential. Bet ya could do this in your own home but I'd rather have a doctor do it.lol

From what I understand it does and it can. A friend of mine said his girlfriend had it at one point and it made her breath smell like s**t! My tongue has just gotten very white coated and patchy after my round of amoxicillian. Antibiotics always have caused a yeast problem for me though never in the...

My tooth extraction is healing nicely, I did get a bit of a dry socket. I still have two teeth in need of work. I had to take amoxicillin for the extraction. 28 pills. Now my tongue is coated white and very patchy. Saw a doc. He did not take a sample of this, was sure it was yeast and is now putting...

Everyone keeps telling me my breath does not smell. I just had a tooth removed as well with an abcsess on the root (old root canal and crown). I had a meet up and neither of us could smell each other. I am/was a smoker, I have quit since extraction. I can smell things and their breath smelled fresh ...

Also my gums are swelling a bit. I quit smoking again and this could be due to the blood flow increasing to the gums. I am not quit sure. Or if it is related to the infection.

Hi Stankie, Halitosisux and FedUp. Had to go back to dentist yesterday, apparently developed a dry socket (even though I was careful not to drink through a straw etc - dentist said it happens). I am still on my antibiotics. A few days after the extraction I felt discomfort at the extraction site and...

We could just build up some kind of cardboard or wood set up with a side for the tester and one for the breather, paper and pen for scale rating and scent description, perhaps have 5 to 10 testers per person. They would never have to meet face to face. BTW, why can't we smell each other? I think tha...
