I have had geographic tongue my whole life (or at least since I was a
baby -- according to my mother).  I have found that it is more pronounced
when I am experiencing episodes of gastric distress (due to any of my
various GI vagaries incl. CD).  Again, no pain but interesting to look
at.  I recently had a complete blood work-up done and I am fine (no highs
or lows) so I don't think diet has much to do with it -- in my case,
anyway.
