Bad Breath Halitosis



I am a 37 year old woman. I do believe I suffer from BB. I have been told in the past. I have the “turn head” while talking, rubbing the nose. Not all the time, but quite often. I have no idea what my problem is.

I got married in 2005. I never mentioned this to my husband, because He never mentioned it, so I figure hey…I must be okay, or maybe I was crazy to begin with. I get married, move away from home, have to two beautiful kids. I go home on a visit and am told by a family member that I have BB. I was so shamed…. once again. I have good hygiene…i brush, rinse all the above. I’m thinking to myself, why doesn’t my very own husband say anything to me. So I take it to him. He denies that he ever smelled anything… EVER. and then says He is the closest one to me, and he would know. Im like…what in the world is going on. who is Fu*&%$*ing with me…. I told him not to worry about my feelings… they wont be hurt…I just need to know so that I can the the proper steps.

Prior to marriage, I had my tonsils removed, saw two ENT specialist, had a colonoscopy, and had a period where I suffered from sinusitis back to back…This one doctor even had me talk DEAD in his face and said he could not smell it….

I thought am i losing my mind? People can’t possibly be rubbing their nose for nothing.

So confused…and so glad I found this site..
