A woman says a change in her breath was the first symptom that later led doctors to diagnose a serious illness. According to her account, her boyfriend noticed that her breath smelled unpleasant. She responded by increasing her oral hygiene, brushing obsessively and using breath sprays, but the strong odour persisted and did not improve.
The reports state that medical professionals ultimately connected the breath odour to the underlying condition. She later describes that doctors warned she was close to a coma, implying that the illness had reached an advanced stage by the time she received appropriate treatment. The articles present her experience as a case of unusual symptoms prompting medical attention, and emphasize that the situation escalated despite attempts to manage the problem through dental measures.
The available coverage focuses on her personal timeline—initial detection of bad breath, attempts at self-treatment, and the subsequent medical assessment and warning—without detailing the specific disease in the provided excerpts.
