    Please Help! Why is my mouth getting all white inside?

    Inside my mouth is slowly getting all white, Help! For the last few years I've been having difficulty swallowing. My jaws hurts when I chew. I have ear aches once in awhile.  I am not in the best of health. However, I do have a good heart.  In Feb 2004, was put on blooded thinners and Potassium due to a blood clot that was found in my left leg from ankle to upper thigh.  I noticed in a MRI that was taken August 2004 that my head was deformed.  I notified my doctor and I went to see an ENT specialist.  However, many things could cause face deformities besides cancer.  For the last five years or more I have been on Fosomax, Actos and I have Madelung's Disease.I visited a number of specialists and they can not tell me why my mouth is turning white.  First it was white under my tongue, then my gums turned white and now the rest of my mouth is turning white, slowly the sides and the back of the neck.  What’s next?  Can any one tell me?  Is this what happen to you?  How long did you have to wait before they told you had cancer?  What kind of doctor did you go to get diagnosis?  I went to my dentist, plastic surgeon (which was suppose to be a nose ear and throat surgeon), ENT and my Internist (family doctor). I have seen my relatives suffer with Cancer and I know how much you are suffering.  My prayers are out to you.  May the Lord have mercy on you all!

    I need to correct the year on this. The year is 2007 and not 2004. I have been on Fosomax since 2002. Actos since 2002 or 2003 and had a mild case of the Madelung's Disease since I was a teenager. Then started to effect me more in my mid thirties. Scared51
