Canker sores -- Drat
Canker sores — Drat! Am I already violating my promise not to detail health problems?
Well, I'll skirt the issue a bit by not detailing the years of suffering the painful irritation of mouth sores.
Instead, what I wanted to say is that since going on the Nexium to treat my acid reflux, I haven't had a canker sore.
That's five months without when I don't recall a period in my life longer than about 2 months without.
I noticed that the picture of my doudenal ulcers looked very similar to my canker sores and I asked my doctor about whether they were related. He basically gave me a "Hmmm" look and said he would ask a gastric specialist he knew.
Now I'll have to go back and ask him whether it makes any sense that Nexium might reduce or eliminate the occurance of canker sores.
