Thank you to everyone who commented on my last post, and thanks so much for all the helpful suggestions too. My dental consultation was partly successful but hasn't resolved the issue of my sore tongue. The good news is that the dentist could find nothing seriously wrong with my mouth but the bad news is that he thinks I have 'burning mouth syndrome', for which there is no cure, as such ðŸ˜I asked about B12 supplements and he agreed that they could do no harm, and he gave me a prescription for steroid mouthwash tablets; swish 4 times a day for a week to reduce inflammation. OK so far so good.....
Do you think anyone stocks the blooming things? Of course not. Every pharmacy I tried has none, can't get them and even online they are unobtainable! I rang the surgery this afternoon and my dentist is off until Monday. No one else can help. For goodness sake 😫
None of the pharmacies had any sublingual B12 (thank you Bun!) nor pastilles (thanks Gill!)
I ended up buying ordinary high strength B12 tablets and have ordered both the sublingual version and the mouth ulcer pastilles online from Boots. Unfortunately, the collection date will be 4th December at the earliest. I despair sometimes....

This evening it's the village Christmas lights switch on...yay! The whole family are going to come so I'm looking forward to it. We've just had a downpour of rain so I hope that's the end of it for today.
Thanks for popping in. Stay safe and well wherever you happen to be,
Angie 💗
