Bad Breath Halitosis Forum

Thanks Stevo! I will update July 1st after my appointment. I'm counting down the days.....

I am so proud of myself (Yes I know it'll seem lazy to some of you that I waited this long, but I literally could NOT bring myself to do it!!!). I have an appointment on July 1st. I have been suffering with BB for at least 15 years. I used to think it was because my Mom neglected to take us to the d...

I do. It is aweful, I think I smell like raw shit (from comments) although I cannot smell it myself.

Today in about 4 hours I have an MD appointment and it will be the very first time I have spoken with a doctor about this (I have mentioned it to my dentist who assured me there is no cure & that I need to bring gum everywhere...um OK). I'm so nervous I'm shaking. Anybody have any advice for me?...

Sorry to butt in on this, but I just want to mention that there are many on here who report BB starting when they've neglected a decaying tooth which they havent dealt with promptly, and the BB continuing even after they've had the tooth filled etc, as though something has gone catastrophically wro...

WOW congrats! Sounds VERY promising for you Can you tell me more about your bb? Was it fecal? I'm just looking for hope I guess And the antibiotic - did you take it 400mg per day? Or multiple times daily?

Thanks cool I appreciate it :) Anyhow yes, I do have the dreaded white coating that comes back shortly after brushing. I can get pretty far back w/ my toothbrush but how I can check the smell back there? With a dry toothbrush? I think I definitely have PND. When I brush the back part of the roof of ...

Cool - I for the most part cannot smell my own breath. No smelly floss, I can touch my tongue/mouth & not smell a thing. I do get tonsil stones occasionally and those definitely stink. My teeth, I believe are in good health (when I had my rotten tooth pulled I also had my wisdom teeth pulled). N...

Some of you may have seen my previous post, but I still haven't spoken to a doctor about my BB (my dentist told me there was no cure & to just carry around mints & gum....uggg). Anyhow after over 15 years of suffering silently I think I am ready to bring this up with my MD. Those of you that...

BBsucks, if you havent got the guts to tell a doctor then do you think you deserve to ever be cured?BB. WOW thanks for helping me get up the guts to go to the doctor. Such a wonderuflly encouraging post....NOT. I finally got up the nerve to ask my dentist at my last appointment and all she said was...

I just need to vent so thanks in advance guys :) So I generally cannot smell my breath but thanks to the sweet people I come in contact with daily, I know it is fecal. Anyhow 2 times now in the last month I've gotten a "wiff" of it and it smells like diarrhea!!! HOW DISGUSTING! I'm mortifi...

once my I was at lunch with my in-laws and a bunch of their friends and I was sitting next to my father-in-law and he said, 'What are you eating???", really loudly. I told him and he said, "Well I hope it taste better than it smells on your breath." I about died! I got up with my bab...

TIRED: Thanks for your advice. I sooo want to tell people because this is seriously just killing me slowly. I just have to get up the guts to start the conversation. And my husband must know all about my BB but for some reason it just doesn't bother him. He doesn't act embarrassed of me or for me an...

Dark-I'm sorry you feel that way. Me personally I cannot handle holding this in any longer. I have been suffering for about 15 years and have NEVER told a single person. I'm going to bust if I don't. I just can't seem to let it out.....

I would LOVE to hear stories on how you brought up the topic of your BB to loved ones. I have been with my husband a total of 10 years (married 4 years) and I have NEVER said a word about how this affects me. I literally cannot bring myself to say ANYTHING. Also I'd like to say something to good fri...
