Any Reports of Allergies to Colgate Sensitive01/13/2011 |
Last night when I brushed my teeth within a couple of minutes I had a strange feeling come over me. My lining of my mouth felt like tiny needles were poking it.The back of my throat felt strange and I had difficulty swallowing my saliva. The palms of my hands felt the same way. My heart began to pound so hard and fast I could hear it in my ears. I felt I was having some tightness in my chest and could hardly talk. I quickly laid down and after about 4 minutes the symptoms subsided except for my lips felt tingly, slight difficulty swallowing, and I could hardly talk, my voice was affected. I threw the toothpaste away. I haven`t found any complaints about the toothpaste on the web this morning. This morning only my throat feels a little strange, like it is tight and a little difficult to swallow saliva. Thank You.
