This is not normal!!! :'( honestly I am crying right now!!!!!.
I have to hold my breath when my friends talk to me very closely..to the point I can eplode because ocassionally I run out of breath!!!
My friends sometimes says to me if Im ok because I look strange, I answered them but first taking few steps back or by avoiding eye contact
I work with my sister in the office and when she sits next to me to look at the computer or something I hold my breath or put my hand in my mouth..
My morning breath is the worst ever!!!
My mouth is soooo dry 24/7and with a horrible taste, it gets worse after I eat, doesnt matter how many times I brush.
Whats the point of being alive if you cant even freaking talk or have a normal life!!!
what did I do to deserve this curse??
COMMON SENSE CURE! for those looking for a cure.

wnaysha,
yes the only way to know for sure whether u have TMAU is to be tested, although i write to a research hospital many years ago in total desperation when i first read about it and gave stacks of details, and they wrote back saying its impossible that i have TMAU. They probably would not say the same thing today. Anyway, i mentioned TMAU not because i believe any of us have TMAU but to describe roughly how TMAU works and how it might compare to other digestive possibilites which might be causing BB.
Specifically, my point was that if some are absorbing odourous chemicals from digestion as you say we are, which get exhaled through the lungs, then surely these odours would also be present in sweat or urine or saliva as commonly occurs with TMAU and with spicy foods and garlic etc.
p.s. do you know what your typical oral pH level is?

Hi needsbbmiracle,
Its so strange that we r all going through the same thing, I mean not just the disease but same social problems n we do the same thing to hide it, I used to hold my breath alot but then I started having lung problems n it was hard for me to breath at night, so I decided to breathe, lol,
U r right It is totally abnormal, although I have seen ppl with this problem but this is just unbearable.
U know what I wana do,I want to make a rehabilitation center with different kinds of doctors only to cure bb, so that ppl with this weird problem can go there for a few months n get the encouragement and the right kind of treatment to get rid of this. It is just impossible to live with it, I think I should be in hospital right now being treated, no getting ready to go to work where I know I will lose my self esteem again this week.
Do u know how many times a week I read good things about self esteem to be able to live normal? Its just so sad,
I wish I could get married to a dentist, n make him create a rehab center.

halitosisux,
No I haven't checked my oral ph, but my AR doctor told me that this acid could be causing my bb, n he told me to do a stomach ph test, u put a kind of paper in ur stomach for 24 hrs to see how many times the acid comes up, n he said I might need to do a surgery to have my ar under control. and as i said i'm waiting for my mom's insurance, so can't do anything until i get ins.

Hi,
This is so confusing. Im reading that the more acid present, the less bacteria or bacterial activity generally, and the odours from any reflux come only from the acidic juices themselves which cause very minor odours.
If reflux is directly causing BB does anyone know how it might do that apart from indirectly through protective reactions of the mucous membranes? Because even food which sits in the stomach for a couple of hours mixed with all that acid doesnt smell bad. Just burping proves this, and so does vomit. Or does anyone have bad smelling burps/vomit which smell nothing like the food they've eaten?
From what i've researched, the only time the stomach produces foul (truly foul) odours is when sacks (diverticula) form in the esophagus in which food becomes trapped and stagnates or similarly from a hiatal hernia.
Low levels of acid on the other hand can have far reaching implications which can indirectly lead to BB, including bacterial overgrowth (more bacteria present than normal, not "bad" bacteria or candida or whatever) in the small intestine, leading to putrification of food at a stage of digestion which isnt normally putrified and which might produce odourous chemicals that get absorbed into the bloodstream.
I know people who complain about acid and heartburn all the time, but they dont have BB.

Iva,
I know I have it b/c the food with acid, comes up my esophagus in my throat n sometimes even in my nasal passages, it feels like as if I am vomiting. Sinuses r like runny nose that comes from the back of ur nose 24/7. but its ok, I can take any pain, anything, but bb. n u know what the worst part is, I have been to 7 doctors n none of them have any idea about whats going on. this is so fd up. Why the hell do they become dr if they can't cure bb? This should be the simplest n easiest thing on this whole earth.
from what I remember, u said u didn't have sinuses, or constipation right? then if u don't have AR, sinuses, or constipation, why do u have bb?
oh one more thing, one of my friends said that to cure wisdom teeth bb problems caused by fungus, u can use monestat cream,
if monestat can be used in mouth can't we use it in nose to make sure our sinuses r not infected by fungus?

ActuallyI know this guy whose in med school, wanting to become a dentist, his father has the same bb problms, maybe he will understand how it feels like to have bb, I wish I could marry him, If I did I'll let u guys know.
are we men really so easily controlled? 
just kidding 
anyway aren't doctors the only ones that dont notice our bb?? so marying one shouldn't be a problem, unless our personality kicks in wynesha, u are one of the rare that will actually have some influence in a couple of years in the doctors area, they would listen to u, if u actually graduate and finish colleage, others aren't being taken seriously by the doctors, sad,but true... I just wish more halitosis people would study medicine, they could actually make some difference...
ice,
u r sooo funny, no men r not that easily controlled, lol, about getting married to a Dr, ur right I should get married to a dr since they can't smell anything,
and plus to make my dream of rehab center come true, i should marry a dr. but the problem is that my bb's getting better, n if I keep doing what i'm doing right now, my bb might just be cured by then.

-cured?? ure part of the gang now. If u got cured we just might have to exclude u from our VIHP (Very Important Halitosis Person club.Don't fu*ck up!

I kind of didn't get that phrase, but anyways, No i'm still in ur gang, I'm working very hard to follow all of those steps in "common sense cure!" n i'm getting a lil better. I was really sad yesterday, n really wanted to find a cure, so u know what i did? I poured 10 ml of pure hydrogen peroxide on my tongue and kept it there for 10 mins, used as mouthwash again in the morning, without mixing it with water, it worked! I just need to work more on acid though.Ice wrote:She wants me.
it was a joke..ooo u americans, don't even get ur own phrases 
anyways I have to admit that was one of the insane ideas, putting undelleted HP on ure tonque!! I assumed u know what are the side affects of putting hydrogen peroxide on ure tonque! u should know it isn't good for tonque!-ure doing more damage than good with experiments like that. I am guessing u are in contact with doctors, proffesors etch. ask them is it good to put HP on tonque...
PS: I personally belive the problem is in the digestive area, not the tonque, the tonque is just an idicator something is wrong.

I agree with u, in my case I am already taking prevacid to stop the acid, n aloe vera juice to heal my stomach and esophagus, n also eating healthy food without a lot of salt, n spicy stuff in it. so my digestive area is getting cleaner n healing. I use nasonex nasal spray for my sinuses to stop the sinus drainage, n also brushing my teeth @ least 4 times a day to keep my mouth clean, after doing all of that I am finally feeling a little better, n bb is almost gone,
I meant pure 3% hydrogen peroxide, not 100%
. trust me ice, I'm not gona kill myself to cure my bb
