Please pray for me. I have such severe mouth ulcers that I can barely speak, eat, or drink. Sometimes even moving my head causes them to be painful. I have gone through a ton of tests and none of them seem to give any answers except that it’s probably a side effect of my Crohn’s Disease. This would be the first manifestation of such symptoms and it’s really affecting me badly. I was unable to go to Mass with my family tonight and so please pray that I may be well enough to go tomorrow. To add to the ulcers I also have a sinus infection and am iron deficient and so on Monday I go in for an iron infusion. I am so tired and in such pain I need strength to go through my days. It kills me that I couldn’t go to Mass tonight with my parents. I want to go so badly it hurts but I lack the strength to go and I’m in too much pain to go. Please pray that the ulcers go away very quickly. They have already caused me to lose 12 pounds in just a few weeks.
 
Sorry to hear of your suffering; I will pray for you.

Sometimes patients on chemotherapy can get bad mouth ulcers and they can use some form of lidocaine wash to ease the pain. Can you check with your doctor about this?
 
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is
the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners,
now, and at the hour of our death. Amen.
 
A lot of my family members suffer from those, some worse than others. I have not heard of any that bad though! My son suffered from them because of Lymes disease (we believe) and another relative because of walnuts.

They really do hurt so much. I am sorry for your pain!

There are two old fashioned home remedies for your condition. First, brush your teeth thoroughly using toothpaste. Rinse your mouth thoroughly and follow this with a rinse of hydrogen peroxide. Hold the peroxide in your mouth and swish it around for about a minute and spit it out; then, hold your mouth open and breath through it for another minute. This will sting a bit where the sores are, but the oxygen from the peroxide will kill the bacteria causing the sores and will allow your mouth to heal.
The other home remedy hurts a bit more, but will heal the sores in a day or two.
First, clean your mouth by thoroughly brushing your teeth with toothpaste and rinsing. Then get some baking soda and pour a bit of the powder onto a saucer. About a heaping teaspoon will be more than enough. Next, wet the tip of your index finger with your tongue, and dip it into the baking soda to thoroughly coat it. Then using your other hand, pry open your lip or cheek to gain access the sore and dab the baking soda directly onto the sore with your index finger. It will sting like the devil, and the baking soda tastes terrible, but you will be healed in a day or so.
 
Omnipotent and eternal God, the everlasting Salvation of those who believe, hear us on behalf of Thy sick servant, Jefferson, for whom we beg the aid of Thy pitying mercy, that, with his bodily health restored, he may give thanks to Thee in Thy church. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
 
My dog got a mouth full of ulcers and after some biopsies it was discovered that he was allergic to the plaque on his teeth. Is that a consideration for your ulcers?
Mouth ulcers are very painful and make life miserable. I will remember you at the Divine Liturgy tomorrow, and place you under the red and white rays that flow forth from the merciful heart of Jesus.

My goodness you’re missing Mass & lost 12 lbs in a few weeks? You need to tell the doctor about this right away when you go for your iron infusion. Crohn’s can be seriously nasty. I have a friend who had half of his colon removed because of it. Ask your doctor about the special wash timotheos mentioned. I hope you are staying hydrated.

St. Timothy, please pray for JeffersonD.
St. Erasmus, please pray for JeffersonD.
St. Charles Borromeo, please pray for JeffersonD.
St. Bonaventure of Bagnoregio, please pray for JeffersonD.
 
Our Father Almighty God, I pray you let your hand of healing fall upon JeffersonD in Jesus name. Amen

Saint Raphael, please pray for JeffersonD.

Prayer to Blessed John Paul the Great

O Blessed Trinity, we thank You for having graced the church with Pope John Paul II and for allowing the tenderness of Your fatherly care, the glory of the cross of Christ, and the splendor of the Holy Spirit, to shine through him. Trusting fully in Your Infinite Mercy and in the maternal intercession of Mary, he has given us a living image of Jesus the Good Shepherd, and has shown us that holiness is the necessary measure of ordinary Christian life and is the way of achieving eternal communion with You. Grant us, by his intercession, and according to Your will, the graces we implore–

a return to total health for JeffersonD–

hoping that he will soon be numbered among your saints. Amen.
 
Thank you all for your prayers. I’ll be praying for you as well. All of my doctor’s, including my dentist, know about what’s going on we just can’t find a treatment at the moment. My insurance has kept me off of one of my Crohn’s medications for 7 months and so hopefully once I can get back on that I will be okay. I just need some relief soon. Thanks again for all of your prayers!
 
Father Almighty, I join in the prayers for JeffersonD. I humbly ask that You grant him healing and ease his pain so that he may be restored to the best possible health. Bless his doctors and his dentists with wisdom and knowledge so that when they stretch put their hands to treat him, they do so with a portion of Your mighty healing power. I pray, Lord God, that he may be delivered from this illness. All these I ask in the name of Jesus, through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Amen.

St. Jude, pray for him
St. Philomena, pray for him
St. Gianna, pray for him
St. Anthony, pray for him
St. Rita, pray for him.
Blessed John Paul II, pray for him.
