@NickNack yes I understand.  I'm going through it right now too.  Got some stressful news last week and a day later woke up with my tongue feeling swollen and sore again with jaw soreness and a bit of swelling.  Ugh.

@Moonchilde's article is very good. I am an epilepsy patient and though seizures are controlled by medication, sometimes I think I've "grown out of it." I stop taking medicine and have a nocturnal seizure. The only way I know it's happened is because I've bitten my tongue. Then onto the medicine again!

Could be from how you're responding to stress, just like other weird stuff we do without realizing it.

I can recommend Edy's yummy frozen fruity 'Outshine" pops, especially the pomegranate and mango ones.  ;-)

Very soothing - and sometimes numbing - to the tongue.

It just happens.

No need to find the reason or diagnose it.

I have had to go get a tooth "shaved down" before, dentist said the eye teeth, I guess wear down and it changed the bite.  Have the jaws checked, stress while you sleep can be a part of this too.  They do have things to wear to bed to help keep it all aligned.

Hi NickNack,

Given that this condition had a sudden onset and has been continuing without any sign of letting up, it's time for a neruo consult to rule out myoclonic (waking) seizure and a number of other things.

Don't get scared about this, but please know that the situation really does require the attention of a professional at this time.

Best of luck to you.
