dealing w/ halotosis

Nurses General Nursing

Published

I have had halotosis all my life. I have meticulous oral hygiene and have tried every method, product, gum, mints etc. I am being talked about, bullied, ostracized by my co-workers and managers. This affects me deeply and consumes my life. I have spoken w/ dentists and doctors. Any professional advice they give me, I have already done. How do I deal with this?

Go see a GI surgeon. It can come from your stomach and oesophagus.

And you can do this without gagging or throwing up??? Wow

Yes, check it out on YouTube! Very informative. Heaven forbid if nurses had to do this task for patients.
