Nope, nothing gross visible anywhere in the back of my throat, as I suspected. It's coming from deep in my stomach or intestines. I'll bring it up to the dr before she does the scope so she can keep an eye out for perhaps an opening or something that is allowing me to smell my insides.
Jiggles.. I am about to throw up.. I just watched this OMG SO UTTERLY DISGUSTING
OK going to check now to see if I have white stuff in my tonsils (I highly doubt it)
I'm afraid of complications and dr told me that the only real complications arise from the sedation. I have a new baby to take care of.. I cannot take ANY risks! It's just mama strength I guess?
Also, my GI told me in China they don't sedate patients! And, she said she had it done to herself without sedation and it just felt like cramps.
When I had...
I dunno.. the smell seems to be coming from my GI tract. Anyway, I will work on that.. maybe see an ENT!
Endoscopy on Tuesday, wish me luck.. NOT getting sedation
Hey jiggles, my point actually is that I DO NOT HAVE BAD BREATH
It's just this smell from inside my GI or something when my mouth is CLOSED.
Hard to explain..

Yes!! I brush 2x daily and floss 1x daily, it's definitely not hygene related. It's something internal.. seems to be uncommon!

Yes! I had the celiac panel done hence the elevated IGG and Glidean antibodies!
I'm hoping it's Candida but I'll update this thread when I find out exactly what's going on. Have a pending Candida blood...
I can't explain it more than that. I didn't realize that was the smell until today when I had to submit a stool sample and inadvertently smelled my feces and I was like "that's the exact same smell I detect when I exhale with my mouth closed though my nose". It's like coming from deep in my GI tract but I can smell it.
I also did the Candida saliva test...
