Hello doctor, I have posted several messages on this site pertaining to the problem I have been going through in the past two months.  If you have the time to read some of them could you please give me some insight into what's going on please?

Time to see a fifth doctor and ask about GERD (reflux) or post-nasal drip and allergies.

I had something similar.  Check the back of your tongue, do you have enlarged taste buds?  If you scrape your tongue in the back with a fingernail where there are little lumps does your finger smell really bad?  You may have spots were bacteria builds up around your taste buds.  You need to scrape your tongue with a tongue scraper or just use a tooth brush with warm salt water.  Let me know what happens.
