Tingley tongue and turned white

I am now over a year out of radition. For the last six months I have episodes of where my tongue wil start tingling , even starts to go numb. It also turns a creamy white. This lasts anywhere from 3 to 5 minutes, then the tingling goes away and my tongue turns back pink.

I forget to tell my Doctor about it.

Is anyone else having ths issue?

    Hi w

    There is another thread on this.  It isn't very helpful beyond seeing there are others thatt have this happe.  This is clearly vascular spasm, which causes the tongue to blanch and tingle or go numb.  It is probably worth mentioning to your doctor, but it is benign and should not ccause any trouble beyond just the wierd event itself.  Here's the thread:  http://csn.cancer.org/node/249178

    sorry I can't be of more help.   Welcome to the forum.
