Hi Everyone,
I normally post on the LDN site, but I think I may get a better response on this forum.
I noticed today, that I have a very smooth area in the middle of my tongue - about an inch long and 1/4 inch wide. No taste buds - purely smooth but not reddened. I have read that lack of B12 can cause tongue issues but unsure as to whether my symptom fits that bill.
I have been to the Doctor and he is referring me to the cancer head and neck department for tests. He was not my normal doctor and I didn't mention Crohns to him, although he probably should have noticed from my notes.
Panicking a bit!
Has anyone in this site suffered any similar problems? Any help would be appreciated.
Sally
