thanks grace, it could be the 18 months of stress over this incidence causing it.

they don't know what triggers geographic tongue but it's fairly common ( and painful at times too ).
herpes doesn't typically reoccur on the tongue and not in the pattern that you've described. You have no reason at this point to doubt your testing you had done.
grace
yes i did, but why should it start after all these years?, i still wonder weather it is related to my risk in anywayas it started about 5 months after, how much can i rely on my herpes testing? and how would herpes on the tongue present itself?.
steve
did you google it like I suggested?
grace
hi grace, yes i have seen many drs and eventually a oral surgeon but this was 1 year after testing and he also called it geo tongue, what is geo tongue and what causes it , i have never had it before my risk but have been stressed 24/7 eversince
steve
this is very unlikely to be oral herpes going on. Have you been seen yet by your provider?
Also google geographic tongue too.
