burning mouth syndrome
"I have had Burning Mouth Syndrome for nearly 5 years.  Clonazapam does help, but does not take the pain away completely.  I am on other meds to help with the pain..mostly anxiety meds and some meds for Parkinsons Disease that are known to help with BMS.  I have had GAD the majority of my life and BMS started in the downward spiral of my mother's impending death, a job of 20 years I quit to help her and start my own business, and my only child leaving for college.  Anxiety and neurological disorders run in my family. Thought I was pretty healthy until this bomb hit me."
