@halitosisux, yea my mucus really stinks, probably some infection or something.

DAY 13: Woke up with bb, still have sour taste of the left side.
Ate breakfast a while ago, good news is that there are long periods after eating when I can't smell my own bb, I know others can smell it, but it's been so long when I can't even smell my own bb, a very positive sign.
ugh can't stand this sweet/sour taste in my mouth any longer.

Been exercising a lot, the more exercise the more mucus I cough up.
When I spit it's still yellow, especially in the morning.


Hm.. some negative signs. My head has become quite sensitive, it's a bite sore when I touch it.
Like when I wash my hair, I feel like I'm ripping my hair out. Also I feel more hair is falling out.
Also when I popped an acne last night, the spot became black, what the hell. It has never happened before. I hope it doesn't become permanent.

I wonder if it could be the side effect of anaesthetic. Went through two operations within 3 months. Never took any meds for wisdom/tonsil removal, didn't feel any pain. I was actually sick during the tonsil surgery.

[TIP] for anyone wanting to go through surgery, make sure you are in good health otherwise it'll cause a lot of stress on the body. And the body sure is fragile.


God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can and wisdom to know the difference.

Hey Fedup !
Wow day 18 already.
Okay well I still have bb, and the great news is that it's harder and harder to detect my own bb. Before all I needed to do is to open my mouth, stick my tongue out and breath, the stink nearly made me faint.
However... unfortunately other people can still smell my stink, although I don't know the severity of it.
](*,)
I don't get a lot of coughs now, just nose rubs or hands near face, which I can deal with, but the coughing kills me every time.
The taste is getting closer to normal now, but I still taste sour when I suck my left cheek.
OOh another great improvement is when I breath on my hands, the air is nice and cool, not hot and stinky.
Also the other day I sneezed into my hands, a huge piece of clear mucus flew into my hands, I took a sniff and nearly jumped for joy, no smell.

My dog use to SHAKE his whole body (like a dog trying to dry himself) when I talk to him, man my breath must really stink.

But I'm going to give it another 2weeks - 3 weeks, if I'm still stinking up then I'm off to see the gastroenterologist. Sticking a tube down my throat, wow what fun.


What confuses me the most is that back then I had horrible bb, it was condensed and concentrated, people can stand a few feet away and won't be able to smell it, unless they are directly in front of me, then it's hell.
Drinking/ eating always neutralizes the smell and I can talk freely for about half an hour without worrying about bb, until my mouth gets dry and the smell returns.
Since wisdom removal two months ago, I feel the smell is everywhere people standing far far away can smell it, like wtf. It's like the smell flies out and smacks them on the face. I know the smell isn't as bad as before, but now instead of being condensed and controlled the smell is more free?
I notice it in others too, like one time a customer was asking about a product, I didn't smell a thing, so I pointed her in the direction of the product, she said thanks. I walked past the spot where she was standing, and what a stench. The smell was condensed and just lingered there. I didn't say a thing so it couldn't have been my bb.
I find it so strange.

Day 24... and still not cured, although it's getting better and better.

Okay so I decided to do a detox. I chopped up 4 cloves of garlic and mixed it with plain yogurt, and ate it out of desperation. I ended up with a garlicky odour and even though I couldn't smell anything, everyone around me were freaking out like vampires. So always do it on a weekend and not when you have to work. It certainly improved my digestion. I coughed up a tonsil stone and took a sniff and it smells like garlic.
Everything in our body is connected. I read on curezone someone stuck up clove of garlic up their arse and was able to taste it in their mouth.

I also started taking acuzole (brand name. Metronidazole is actually the generic brand), on monday night. I noticed a huge difference since taking the first dose. I ran to the bathroom after taking the pills and took a huge dump.
My breath certainly improved a lot. After eating my breath is bad, but after a while my mouth returns to normal, and bb is down to 5%. Damn people with good breath is so lucky.
I was able to talk to customers at close range without making them flee. Some people even stood real close to me and their breaths made me want to flee. Although I'm not 100% cured, it certainly improved my confidence by 100%. The problem is that I'm still experiencing a lot of discharge near the tonsil area, it's not as sour as before but that is the main reason for my bb. I don't know if the pills did anything on that infected area but it certainly changed something in my nasal area. Yesterday I sneezed into a tissue and smelled the tissue and it had a very weird smell, before it never use to smell. It's not a stinky smell but very weird, like a chemical smell. I use to get some discharge near the nasal area but after taking the pills I felt something close up up there.
What I realize is that pills can reach the extremities of the body. Of course my hopes aren't high because most people say bb creeps back.
My skin looks better and not like sand paper, at least something good came out of it.
What I learned is that most of us who have bb have a weak immunity system, regardless of our physical build. With detox and meds, our bb improves but comes back is because when we do those things our immunity goes up but sometimes it's not strong enough to stay up and the bacteria takes over again. The only thing left to do is to detox, eat healthy, exercise and pray for the best.

Imagine trying to explain that to your loved one's if you got caught shoving garlic up your ass lol

I've noticed my skin has become cleared up a bit. I have very, very mild acne. But it seems to have not been an issue this past week. 2 Years ago I had to roaccutane for cysts on my back, and my face wasn't too bad. that cleared up.

I'm really praying this is my cure. I've been in denial all this time thinking my breath doesn't smell, Alot of people won't react directly so it makes it hard to diagnose. I was sat next to a buddy for half an hour and he didn't flinch or say anything. but then i got an email saying I should wipe my ass.... lol this has got to be my cure, before this year I never had any BB problems. My tonsils gotta be my cure.

Hope you're doing well. when was your pain at the worst?

Hey guys thanks for the support :D

Day 29 and still not cured unfortunately.
Still getting yellowish discharge. The strangest thing happened, I came home today and my bathroom smells like cat urine so I sniffed around and realized that the smell is coming from my sink!! From my tongue scraper which I forgot the rinse this morning. Eww right? I don't know if it's because of a side effect of the drugs I took (acuzole)?
I'm not really sure about my breath anymore. I have spoken to many people directly with no reaction what so ever, well unfortunately I can still kill them when they come too close as in having their nose a few inches from my mouth.
Then there are a few who move quickly away after talking to me.
Then there are some who MOVE EVEN CLOSER to me after talking to me.
No one is really nose rubbing, no coughing. I think it varies from person to person, someone with a really strong sense of smell can pick it up better than a person with a weaker sense of smell.
Today I nearly cried with joy when I was interacting with a friends child, who usually cringes at the sight of me, but today I was talking to her and teaching her things without her running off to her mommy.
I can safely say my breath is about 10%, although it did go to 5% on drugs, now without acuzole it's about 10%.
I was talking to my cousins without them throwing nasty comments here and there.
I suck on my cheeks and the saliva is close to neutral, still a hint of sourness.
I stick my tongue out and was surprised that I can't even smell my own bb, I stick it out several times a day and nothing.


I notice something strange as well. I work in a very stuffy place, no air con or whatever, I can be talking to someone directly without reaction for a long time but when they walk by me they start making reactions, such as a clearing of throat, or nose rubbing. It's cause the stink gets condensed in the air around me. Or if someone comes into the shop they can also smell it. I notice in the reactions.

Side Effects: still experiencing a VERY SORE head especially at night. My mom said it's probably because of lack of blood flow. I do have weak blood circulating in my body. What I do is a 10min head massage everyday, sticking my feet up in the air, to combat future hairloss.

Even when I exercise I get tired so easily. I guess even though I may appear healthy my body is still trying to fight off the infection, and the stress that comes with bb.

@Fedup, my skin didn't really improve much, it gets worse and better, worse and better. I think it's because of poor digestion.
Hm... I didn't really experience any pain, although the ENT said that day 5-8 would be the worst, so I spent a lot of time fearing day 5-8, but it turns out to be nothing. I didn't even feel extreme pain. The most painful for me was when coughing because it felt like I was suffocating on my own saliva. I even ate chilli pizza and didn't really experience much pain.
It's good you cough up all that crap, it's the only way to clear up all the bacteria. I didn't cough up blood but yellowish glob of crap, and after that my breath improved slowly. I wish I didn't let it rush down the sink. I regret not examining it. Can't believe something so foul can be trapped in my tonsils for so long.
I certainly hope this is your cure, going through hell for nothing is a big disappointment.

Day 34, not cured yet... still struggling at 10%...

I'm mad, at the age of 14 I had surgery to remove a cyst, but the FREAKING TWAT left 2 teeth stuck in my cheeks after removing my bones. Why didn't he take it out?

Now at the age of 23, I found that out, thankfully the new surgeon removed it.
I just realized that my saliva has a slight fishy smell. I think after wisdom extraction it opened some wound, and now it's leaking this fishy smell which I had since I was a child.
At first I thought I might have tmau, but after thinking a bit, it might not be tmau because the stink only exists in the left side of the mouth.

My problem is now in the nasal area. holy crap. The discharge runs down along my throat, causing a stink.
What I've been doing is a saline rinse, squirting water up my nose. Sure enough my breath cleared up a bit, and I didn't even brush my teeth.
So my problem has got to be in the nasal area.

In the morning first thing I do is spit out some saliva onto my palm, let it dry and then taking a sniff. Man the smell can kill a cow. But during the day it's better.

Oh dear God, I'm so tired, it's like this nightmare won't end.

If your saliva smells that bad then that could be why it also comes out of your nose too.

Could there be something wrong with a salivary gland?

I thought of that too, I thought it could be liver damage, diabetes, h.pylori, and god knows what else. BUT the smell only comes from my left nostril.
My right side doesn't smell at all.
hehe the other day I was watching a movie with my cousins, I was in the middle. That day my mouth was dry been having digestive issues, so the smell magnified a bit.
Everytime I opened my mouth for popcorn, the cousin on the left would automatically wipe his nose. The cousin on the right didn't really respond.
When I talk to people I take caution in twisting my head a bit so they can't get a whiff of my stink.
If the salivary gland is indeed impacted, wouldn't my whole mouth stink rather than only the left?

I don't know why my body malfunctions so much. But if given the choice to switch bodies with anyone in the world, I would reject immediately. Even though my body gives me hell, I have learnt to appreciate everything that has happened. I actually love my crappy body, the good and the flaws.
I can only say that through all my experiences, I've become so mentally strong. Simple things that could irritate the crap out of normal people doesn't bother me at all, such as waiting in line, dealing with rude people, etc etc. Sure sometimes I wake up feeling I'd rather die in bed, but I know everyday only makes me stronger.
If you can compare yourself to the best, you can also compare yourself to the worst, and I choose the latter. I think about people dying of starvation, people losing a loved one, people dealing with cancer/aids, and I think to myself, hey bad breath isn't that bad... really... especially when you are down to 10%

I'm confused by your descriptions. :?

Can you please give a summary of your situation, symptoms and history. Please explain where you're able to detect odours coming from.

Hmm.. sorry if I sound confusing, that's because I'm confused myself.
I have two types of smells blasting at me from two different places.

1.Now after extracting two tooth that was left in my cheeks by a surgeon 9 years ago, I have a slight fishy discharge from upper nasal area. Very noticeable upon waking up, my mouth stinks like dead fish but only in the morning. During the day it's not really noticeable... I hope, I can't really taste or smell it, but maybe other people can?
If you do the nasal rinse, you'll notice at the very back of your throat there are two holes at the roof of your mouth. That is where the mucus drains down.
I spit into the sink and the saliva is very close to white. Then I do the saline rinse in the nose and spit, the saliva is mixed with yellow stuff. So that's how I know the there is a some infected mucus stuck there.

2. The area where the left tonsil is removed, is emitting a sweet/sour taste throughout the day.
That area is still raw and healing quite slowly compared to the right side, I tried to scrub it clean but it hurts real bad.

So yea two places, nasal and tonsil area.

Stankie No offense but your posts are super long, I'm already lost after reading a few sentences. But you are right, maybe there is something wrong with the left lymphatic system. But unfortunately I don't have access to cannabis.

Day 35, same old crap. Not better not worse. Still stuck on freaking 10%.
lol, my 10% could be somebody's 100%.

Born to suffer, I'm slightly more clearer now.. until you mentioned those two holes on the roof of your mouth. What holes? Do you mean the two arches next to that dangly bit in the middle called the uvula? I can't think what else you could mean, sorry.

Interesting how saline irrigation of your nose releases yellow PND. I know with chest infections, if the mucus is brown or green, that indicates bacteria are involved. If it's yellow it means bacteria are not involved, and that it's due to viral infection. Whether that's any relevance to your yellow nasal mucus, I just thought I'd mention it to you incase it gives you some clues. It may also be completely normal to have some yellow mucus. Mine is often yellow when I blow my nose, but the mucus never smells.

The fishy smell could be TMAU.
