Don - My wife's throt pain begins in the lower part of her neck and spreads
upwards to involve the back of her throat, teeth & jaw, and tongue. It has
changed a little over time. She used to emphasize that her "tongue was on fire."
Now she is more likely to say, "All my teeth hurt." Repeated dental
consultations have failed to reveal a dental cause.
Thanks for your interest. Bob Howard
