    I only have this problem during a breakout. It's been twice so far since I was diagnosed a little more than 3 months ago. In between breakouts I have been gargling with vinegar, baking soda, and water. I also change my toothbrush weekly. It seems to work better that way and my breakout this last time wasn't as severe or painful in doing so. May I ask, were you getting check ups regularly before you had found out that you had 1, and were there any visible signs for you?

    Yes, big white spots form on my tongue or all over my mouth. Absolutely disgusting.
