Wonder If Hope for Burning Mouth is right for you?
It’s right for you if:
#1 – You have been trying to figure out if you have Burning Mouth Syndrome and can’t get help from the medical establishment.
It takes an average of 34 months — yes, almost three years — to get a Burning Mouth Diagnosis.
And there’s a good reason for this — most doctors have no idea what to do about this condition, and as the Journal of Oral Sciences reported in 2010, “Most clinicians DREAD seeing the patient presenting with a primary complaint of burning pain on one or more oral mucosal surfaces (the lining of your mouth and tongue).”
Why? Because they don’t know what to do for you!
This typical hesitancy and fear of Burning Mouth Syndrome represents three long years of going to doctors, dentists, specialists, and alternative practitioners.
That’s three years of sleeplessness, pain, frustration, and thinking that you’re going crazy.
And then, once you do find out you have Burning Mouth Syndrome, you need to find a solution.
After working successfully with hundreds of Burning Mouth Syndrome patients, I’ve created this course to significantly shorten that timeline for you — starting now.
What you need is a roadmap to follow — one that tells you if you might have Burning Mouth Syndrome or the myriad other conditions that can give you pain and dry mouth.
#2 – You feel like you’re crazy because you are in pain and no one can find anything wrong with you.
You have been on your own trying to navigate the system. But now there is help. Hope for Burning Mouth will review the possible causes of your symptoms, the right tests that will help you get a diagnosis, and an idea of the most effective treatments for getting you the relief you deserve.
Burning Mouth patients have anxiety, depression and stress, which is understandable. It’s a part of this puzzling syndrome and needs to be addressed. That said, what you don’t need is doctors telling you that it must be in your head because they can’t find anything wrong.
The medical establishment has tried to blame Burning Mouth Syndrome on depression and anxiety. 90% of people with Burning Mouth Syndrome are peri-menopausal and menopausal women. When the primary people suffering are women, it’s easy for the medical establishment to write it off to emotional problems. This is clearly unfair.
What you are up against:
- Doctors who believe that depression is the cause.
- Doctors who think anxiety is the cause.
- Scientists who think fear of cancer is the cause.
Yes, even in this age of scientific advances, there are doctors still claiming it’s all in your head! They think you are worrying yourself into Burning Mouth Syndrome. They are also saying that because you are depressed, normal sensations are being perceived as painful.
But you know it’s not normal, and I know it’s not normal. Because doctors can’t figure it out, they are blaming you, the person with Burning Mouth Syndrome. The more enlightened doctors say you’re depressed because of the pain. That’s more like it. Of course, chronic pain is depressing, especially if your sleep is affected. But you need help and relief.
You know there is something wrong and that you are not imagining it. But you need help in getting the treatment you seek. That’s where this course comes in. Armed with the right data and next steps, you can now take charge of your healing path going forward, and find a doctor who will not only make the diagnosis, but also treat you based on the knowledge in this course and Dr.Sklar’s upcoming professional course Burning Mouth Solutions for Practitioners.
#3 – You are tired of running around in circles without finding a solution to this puzzling disorder that no one seems to know much about.
Of course you are. You just need the knowledge to understand how to look beyond your tongue to how your body is deficient in nourishing hormones that tame the flames of inflammation. You need to know the effects of diet, vitamins, and minerals as contributing factors to your Burning Mouth Syndrome.
Seeing professionals who examine the surface of your tongue and mouth is important for diagnosis of Burning Mouth Syndrome but will not provide a solution. The problem is not visible. It is in the nerves. The deficiencies in your hormone levels are causing malfunction in your nerves. This Is what is causing your burning tongue and mouth.
The solution is to treat the underlying problem which causes burning mouth and tongue. You do not have a deficiency in Prozac or Librium. You do have deficiencies in many steroid hormones.
Why is this? For one thing, you are likely menopausal or perimenopausal. 90% of sufferers of Burning Mouth Syndrome fall into this category. Your hormone levels have been declining for years and now have reached a critical level.
Added to this is stress. And who isn’t stressed? The modern world, our demanding lives, past trauma, and illnesses can cause a stress response in your body that depletes your important neuroactive hormones. These are hormones that specifically act within the nerves in your body.
You may be deficient in critical vitamins and minerals. These vitamins and minerals are essential to proper function of nerves and reduction of pain.
You may have pain after a viral infection. You need a doctor who can test you for this.
You may have other conditions that mimic Burning Mouth Syndrome. You need to be evaluated for these so that you can get proper treatment for autoimmune disorders, diabetes, or yeast in your mouth. These problems can give you mouth pain and dryness.
Your Hope for Burning Mouth Course Includes:
- Lifetime access to your course portal; a virtual “Tool Kit” covering all aspects of Burning Mouth Syndrome in eight sequential modules, 52 lessons.
- An additional future module on new treatments for Burning Mouth Syndrome
Before I show you what’s inside each of the modules, I think it’s time I introduce myself.
For the past 15 years I have been treating both men and women in the emerging field of Functional Medicine. In this field I take on the most challenging and complex patients — the ones who have searched everywhere without success.
Only since then have I been able to really change lives. Burning Mouth Syndrome is one of those challenging and complex problems. I have witnessed how solving this problem changes lives and brings more joy.
I know what you need:
- First, you want to be heard and understood, not written off as a kook who doesn’t have any visible problem.
- Then you need a doctor who can think outside the box for treatments because the usual pain medications don’t work very well or have intolerable side effects.
- You need someone with a broad understanding of Burning Mouth Syndrome because there are many possible treatments and you may need to try multiple approaches.
- You need some steps you can take for yourself right now to start getting relief.
And my own health journey helped me understand what’s it like to be misunderstood by doctors who have a narrow approach where they only stay within their own specialty area rather than putting together a multidisciplinary approach.
This insight has dramatically influenced the way I think about health challenges and meet them.
My experience with many Burning Mouth patients has given me a greater depth of understanding than most practitioners who only see one or two patients with this problem during their entire practice careers.
I work almost exclusively with Burning Mouth patients like you. I help you:
- Figure out if you really have Burning Mouth Syndrome or if it could be something else
- Find a practitioner who can help you implement the recommendations in this course
- Learn what testing is needed to make the diagnosis and direct treatment
- Understand options to try on your own to get relief
- Finally get your life back so that pain is no longer controlling you
At last, someone who understands. Possibly the worst thing about BMS is that although it is not life threatening, it is certainly life changing and it takes a long time to come to terms with and accept. Acceptance is the key to going forward with our lives.
I have indeed just managed to download your Mouth on Fire book. I am here crying because FINALLY, FINALLY someone understands the agony I have been going through for a year now, nonstop.
I see a glimmer of hope on the horizon. I am desperately searching for a doctor in my country who can treat me as you do similar sufferers of this condition.
I desperately want to get off the medication my doctor has put me on as I cannot function and have lost my love for life.
Thank you so much for your work. It means so much to me.
Best regards,
But, you may have some legitimate doubts …
- I don’t know if this will work for me. I’ve tried so many things before.
- Will I be able to understand what’s in this course? Learning medical terminology and about diagnosis and treatment seems daunting.
- What if it’s too late? I’ve been suffering for so long, I feel like nothing will work. Is there is a chance that I will find solutions in this course to help me feel better?
Here’s what I can promise you:
I’ve seen BMS patients who’ve suffered for decades find relief and a confident path forward under my care.
What’s more, I’ve made every effort to make everything as actionable and as easy to understand by the lay person as possible.
You will follow the Hope for Burning Mouth course discovery pathway step-by-step, taking you through learning everything there is to know about this difficult and challenging syndrome. You will become your own expert and probably know more about Burning Mouth Syndrome than most practitioners.
I encourage you to forget the agony and frustration you have gone through trying to get a diagnosis. Look to the future and the possibility that your pain will no longer control your life.
Let go of what other doctors may have told you in the past. Let go of the pain of being told “there is nothing we can do.” There is in fact a great deal we have been doing with success in helping BMS sufferers just like you.
Stay open to the possibility of getting help that is effective and will bring you relief.
Are you ready to be heard, believed and understood? Are you ready to find a solution?
She is absolutely amazing and the slide show was very informative as I’m losing hope. This has given me hope back.
Have a beautiful day. Thank you kindly.
