<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> We've been concentrating on dental problems (and lasagna and bread machines) for a few weeks, let me take this one step further. When I was recently diagnosed as celiac I attended a conference in Omaha where the dairy connection was discussed. At that time I was eating lots of yogurt and drinking milk. I had a large, pink smooth spot on my tongue - the shape of an upside down, stylized tulip blossom, about an inch long. No pain, no problem, just there. So I cut out all dairy and within a week the surface of my tongue returned to normal texture and color. However, I soon developed what my nutritionist has called a geographic tongue, with a grand canyon down the middle, front to back, and various tributaries running into it. It is not painful nor problematic in any way, just a curiosity, and as it has not always been like that, I assume that something somewhere else in the body is causing the creases. Any suggestions? Would an accupuncturist chart be able to point out connections? Wondering if I'm the only one..... GK
