Hi
I had mouth ulcers a long time before i was diagnosed and was told it was something to do with my anemia and lack of iron, i am now taking furrous gluconate and this helped!. Hope this is of some use to you.

I used to always get lots of mouth ulcers and they would be on of the first things to show before a bad flare up. usually once my flare was controlled the ulcers would go away

Mouth ulcers are a consistent feature of my active CD.
I've tried everything to get them under control.
The only thing that really works for me - is getting the disease under control.
I also have neutropenia - so that also contributes to them.
Urgh! I'm thrilled when I can eat, swallow and speak!!
