I am 6 weeks into a difficult relapse and among many symptoms, I have swollen gums, not red, not painful, but lots of pressure. I'm wondering if anyone else has had this symptom during a relapse. I feel like my teeth are being pushed out of my mouth!

I had that and you describe it exactly as i experienced it---but it was not do to a relapse it was from hives i had acquired from the meds. swollen gums/mouth report this to doc as it indicates something that could possibly interference with the breathing path if worsened.
i did report it, nothing was done but i off loaded the responsibility of dealing with it on him, not me. i think that's what patients are suppose to do. tell the doc then let the doc do his job.xxxxxxxxxxx

Thanks for the advice guys. I spoke to my neuro about it yesterdy and he did not seem concerned. I also had my primary care doctor take a look at my mouth and she believed it was related to the relapse and did not feel it was an allergic reaction or an infection of any sort, since there is not redness. I do feel a lot of pressure in my mouth and head during this relapse, so maybe it is ms doing funky things. It's always good to hear from others. Thank you!RRMS since 2008
