Yikes!!! In this link it talks about this and the tongue pic is exactly what my tongue looks like. The ENT Dr said it wasn't thrush, which is what I thought it was. It has been like since I started TX and still a year later after EOT.

I have lichen planus, too. But in my case it appeared when I got hiv. It has been stable since I started my hcv treatment a month ago. BTW, I have it on my **** head. Great place, really... :-(
hey virus buster u said your lichen planus showed up when you got hiv. i had sex with this chick i just met had unprotected oral and a few days later i got what looked like lichen planus on my head also, ive been having a loose stool since then also. how long was it before the lichen planus showed up after you had sex?
