burning mouth syndrome
"Was in pure agony 24/7 with BMS for about 2 1/2 months.  Tried 'magic mouthwash', but it only lasts an hour and was supposed to be used every 4 hours, so I went through the bottle in no time.  Went through a bottle of Chloraseptic every 4-5 days.  Took extra vitamins, went on Alpha Lipoic Acid, tried everything I could find suggested online.  Then finally asked my doctor for clonazapam.  I could tell when the first pill dissolved in my mouth it was going to help.  Now I'm just trying to get the dosage right.  BMS  is about 80% better.  I get 1 mg up to 3 times a day.  I can easily take all 3 just to sleep at night.  Should I ask for a higher dosage? Taking them this way leaves me with nothing for the daytime, and nothing for anxiety."
