Hi Kate

I used to really suffer but now only get the occasional one. Have you tried iglu? It's about the only thing that seems to help, it forms a seel on top so that you can eat and talk whithout so much pain.

Do you use a toothpaste containing sodium lauryl sulphate as that can cause mouth ulcers. Sensodyne Daily Care doesn't contain SLS, so maybe worth a try - it solved the problem for my son after many years of suffering.
