Notable sufferer of BMS

The career of Sheila Chandra, the Indo-English singer, has been effectively ended by this syndrome. Here is an interview on the CBC where she discusses it.[1] It is referenced also on the web site of her record label[2], Real World. I'm adding this here, with references, in the hope that someone else will add it to the article. My WP plate is too full at the moment to add another article.

  1. ^ Warner, Andrea (Nov 15, 2012). "The stories behind Peter Gabriel's Real World Records: Sheila Chandra". Retrieved 1 August 2013. At first I thought the burning sensation in my mouth was simply a result of the physio work, and only a short-term thing, but it got worse and worse. Now I experience long-lasting neurological pain whenever I speak. Singing is out of the question and I haven't even dared to warm up for about two years. It feels like my mouth is on fire and it goes on for hours or days, and can get bad enough to wake me at night. Remaining silent — which means no talking or singing or laughing or crying — is the only way to stay pain free, and I'm effectively mute. For the first couple of years I didn't even get a correct diagnosis, but I now know that what I have is burnt mouth syndrome (BMS). It often strikes menopausal women, and there is no known cause or cure. The frustrating thing is that my voice sounds completely normal when I do speak. It just hurts like hell!

I think we are supposed to avoid trivia sections and lists of celebrities who have such and such disease, per WP:MEDMOS. Having said that we currently don't have any society and culture section, and this info might find a home there if someone creates the section and if it is indeed notable.

Mast cell activation disorder

strangecow, this mast cell activation disorder link is interesting, but I can't find any WP:MEDRS compliant sources which discuss it. From PubMed, we have only 2 (very small) primary studies [3] and [4].

If anyone finds a medrs complaint source then please add this info because the wikipedia article doesn't currenlty cover this mast cell theory.

I did however find a secondary source which mentioned that antihistamines have been used to treat BMS, which I have added to the treatment section. Matthew Ferguson 57 (talk) 14:30, 19 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Reference #24.

Regarding reference #24, ""Burning mouth syndrome" (PDF). Retrieved 1 February 2019.", I think it would be a good idea to include the source of the PDF so a reader can choose whether or not to follow the link. The PDF is from: "Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery and Orthodontics, The John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, England." I can't figure out how to insert that information, though. I would appreciate help. Thank you, Wordreader (talk) 03:25, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
