I posted about this awhile back!!

The inside of my cheeks are swollen, with really defined borders!! It only happens when I eat!! It started out only happening once every couple of weeks, now it happens daily...like every time I eat and last half an hour or more!! I have an appt at an allergy specialist, but thats not until the 22nd of May. It never goes down my throat, but I am affraid it might someday!! An allergy specialist is very expensive, even with insurance, so I don't want to go if that is not what it is!! Anyone ever experience this?? I have taken a benadryl about 20mins ago so I guess we will see if that works!!

what kind of food are you eating when this happens? is it every single time? I would think its food induced (something your eating each time) I would see if the benadryl would help - even then i know its expensive but I say go see what the dr says!

stupid idea I know, but have you googled it?

I have googled it and most of it says it is dental related, well I know it is not dental related, so I am lost!!! It doesn't happen every time I eat, it doesn't happen when I eat bland food! Tonight I ate chicken with BBQ sauce and it happened, last time I ate Mexican food, I think it happened when I was eating chips and salsa. It also happened when I ate Parmesan basil cracker and other stuff as well!!

did the benadryl help it? If so ---probably some type of allergy. If not----no idea but you should get it checked out.
