Bad Breath Halitosis Forum

I'm sorry it didn't work! In general it feels like my breath smells bad when it feels "hot", I guess this is when the mouthwash wears off in general? I might give that a try. It's so embarrassing to be at work anymore though, I think I'm going to quit and find another job. Maybe a smelly o...

How about the spoon method? Have the spoon lying down near the back of your tongue. Keep your mouth closed and breathe hard on the spoon. Leave it in your mouth for 30 seconds to a minute. Then smell.

There's an area at my work that has a lot of fans blowing in one direction. If you walk forwards with the fans all blowing at your back and breath deeply out through your mouth or nose, you might be able to get a whiff of it. The fans are pretty powerful though so im not sure if fans people use at h...

Mine too! Even though i tongue scrape and do salt water rinses, everytime i spit it comes out stringy white. Can clog the sink drain.

I drink a ton of water too to keep my mouth from getting dry. I cant remember either if ive always had this, or it popped up when the halitosis began.

Thiscantbelife: did the GI say it will close up or heal on its own? It seems like the hiatal hernia could definitely contribute to bb! I've also browsed another site and one user said they had the same fecal odor for years -- they finally tested for h pylori, came back positive, finished the course ...

Im sorry youre dealing with this problem too! Has anyone described the smell to you to help narrow it down? If you live in a country where face masks are common, can you wear one to see if it lessens ppls reactions - could help tell if its nasal bb or another form. I agree maybe it could be caused b...

Thank you for your reply, im sorry to hear you have this as well! This condition is terrible, and idk why doctors seem stumped on it. Did things improve a little after your hiatal hernia was diagnosed? I asked for help on another forum and many people were giving suggestions like zenker's divertium,...

Today was seriously bad... it's so depressing. There's an area at my work where I can smell the odor and it smelled like pure sh##. Everyone around me was coughing or looking at me with disgust, even my one coworker who used to treat me like a friend looked at me like I was disgusting. I truly do no...

I hope you're able to find your answers and find out what's causing it. I wish I could use a face mask but people will see that as me being sick and try to fire me for working around food with an illness. At the very least working with flour I can start eliminating it from my diet right away and it ...

I'm so sorry that your doctor was dismissive of you! I wish they knew how badly this affects our lives. When this condition makes it hard to work then we can't afford doctor visits, and it's just a never ending cycle. It seems like a lot of times doctors won't help too and we have to do all of the t...

I'm sorry that you're dealing with this too. You're right that everyone will be making comments about a smell, but when you ask directly they'll lie. I don't know why that is - with them being honest with us, it could help us eliminate it vs. having us think there's nothing wrong. Mine can be smelle...

Hi everyone. My fecal/sulfur bad breath started for me about 2 years ago. It seems like it happened over a weekend -- a coworker with a very sensitive nose and known for being outspoken suddenly asked "Does something smell like s##t?" and started frantically looking around our workspace to...
