I would try the magic mouth wash again and I would avoid any antibiotics if they aren't necessary.  If your doctor does recommend it, I would follow their orders though.  It may take a few days to start seeing some results so be patient.  Best wishes.  Let me know how it goes.

THANK YOU FOR ANSWERING ME BACK, BUT CAN I ASK YOU,? i I WENT TO THE DRS. ONCE AND SHE SAID MY TONGUE LOOKED FINE, BUT I CANT AFFORD TO GO AGAIN.  I DONT HAVE ANY MEDICAL OR DENTAL INSURANCE, SO IS THERE ANY HOME REMEDIES OR OVER THE COUNTER STOUGH I CAN GET TO HELP MY RAW BURNY SITUATION. NOW THAT IM OFF THE ANTIBIOTIC SHOULD I TRY THAT MAGIC MOUTH WAS AGAIN SINCE IT IS FOR FUNGAL? OR SHOULD I AVOID IT BECAUSE IT HAS A LITTLE ALCOHOL IN IT? I DONT KNOW!  BUT OTHER THAN THAT DO YOU HAVE ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS I CAN TRY. LIKE I SAID, OR AT LEAST I THINK I TOLD YOU, IT WENT AWAY FOR SEVERAL DAYS THEN WHEN I ATE SOME REALLY ROUGH DRY CEREAL FROM THE BOX IT CAME BACK. SO ANY SUGGESTIONS YOU CAN HELP ME WITH I WOULD SO GREATLY APPRECIATE!!!!!!

Hm.... Taking antibiotics too much can cause a side effect of a fungal infection.  If I remember right, didn't you take an antifungal rinse?  It didn't help, did it?  Antibiotics are useful for killing bacteria and it works to reduce the bacteria in your mouth but it doesn't kill fungus which can then grow because of less competition from bacteria.  That's a possibility.  Its called thrush (or candidiasis).
