I'm sorry I can't help with the tongue tinglies, I'll send you some healing hugs, for now.
I'm eager to hear if there is something out there though. The roof of my mouth is so hypersensitive, there are some foods I can no longer eat, like waffles.
I'm sorry you are going through such a tough time. I'm praying your spine spot is nothing too serious. Please keep us posted and let us know a bit more about you too.
