Mouth odor from the stomach is possible to wonder about, but odor alone cannot locate the source.

Reflux or repeated belching may bring sour or unpleasant sensations upward. However, persistent mouth odor can also come from the tongue, gums, dry mouth, tonsils, nasal passages, or trapped food.

Try tracking two categories separately:

Mouth clues: tongue coating, bleeding gums, dryness, tonsil stones. Digestive clues: sour taste, reflux, nausea, belching, upper abdominal discomfort.

That record can make a dental or medical conversation much more useful than simply saying, “My breath smells.”

GERD has me believing in curses and fairytale witches A witch cursed me at birth to have an evil gastrointestinal reflux, and though the kind fairies did all they could as a baby it came back to haunt me when I came of age

#the fairies are the doctors that gave me surgery as an infant #you would think surgery would be a permanent fix but I guess not #gerd #acid reflux

Turns out the severe gastroparesis actually made the stomach burning a lot more bearable, and now that the gastroparesis is being treated the stomach burning has returned with a vengeance (it never actually went away, just got less bad for a bit).
