Burning Lips!

Just wondering if anyone here has had burning lips? is it a symptom of gluten intolerance? wheat allergy?

I do have an appointment coming up and am getting allergy testing done along with B12.

Yes, I had burning lips, mouth, throat and GI tract for 3 years. It was horrible.

No one could explain it to me.

It was an inflammatory response apparently, because some time after going gluten-free after DX, it stopped.

Are they just burning, or actually infected? Could be perioral dematitis. If it is, an antibiotic will clear it up.

sorry, I should have been more clear...no signs of infections,no sores, no cold sores...I wonder if it's a B12 deficiency or an allergic reaction? will find out my B12 results next week and now I have a referral to an allergist..I was told the office would call me to set up the appointment...whenever/whatever I find out is the cause, I will post back and hopefully will help someone else who might have this symptom!

it feels like I ate something hot/spicy and it got on my lips.

I thought it was a B-12 deficiency too, but I was treated for that and it still burned. I had all kinds of allergy testing--nothing there.

It was crazy. I heard all kinds of theories: yeast infection, menopause, vits defs, etc etc. Nope.

Eventually, it stopped, but it sizzled pretty good for a long time....and yes, just like I had eaten and swallowed something hot and spicy.

I could not tolerate acidic foods for a long, long time.

Now, it's all gone. YAAY!

Hang in there--I hope you get answers --and some relief soon.

      Sounds like you are in the UK. With blood numbers that high, I thought docs in UK would give an official diagnosis without the biopsy. You should ask about that, so you can get support faster.  I'd try to find and print out anything that supports that in your country, get another appointment and take all of it with you. Even in the US now, some docs are doing this, my 19 year old step granddaughter got an official diagnosis here in US with just blood results a few months ago.

      Is soy sauce in Korea also made from wheat like it usually is in US? I'd be concerned that even if asking about gluten, they would not be aware of or think of some like that.

      That's a good idea. It can at least establish the potential for developing celiac disease and can help people decided between a celiac diagnosis and NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). And it doesn't require a gluten challenge and can be had without a doctor's prescription.

      I have my endoscopy on Thursday, has anyone had the procedure done with a cough? I don't have a continuous cough, but every now and then throughout the day I have sort of coughing episodes. They are a lot better than they were but I called endoscopy and they said to speak to my gp and my gp got back to me and said I need to ask endoscopy if its ok if I have it done still.  Help!

      Thank you so much, everyone. For the moment my doctor just has me taking iron but hopefully we can reconnect soon. I'm going to look into genetic testing, too. Great advice all around and I appreciate it--and you can bet I'm going off the PPIs!
