What Causes Swelling And Irritation In The Mouth While Treating Intestinal Cystitis?

I have a condition called Sjögren s syndrome and also Interstitial Cystitis. I have been having a miserable few days after accidentally eating onions, which irritate. I have been taking AZO for urinary pain, but the pain is SO severe. The soonest I can get in to see my urologist is tomorrow. Also, I have been having bloody stools and a few weeks ago, I woke up 4vomiting pink foamy Louie that turned I to bright red the more I coughed. I thought that could have been from a sinus checkup that I had recently had but hen that dr told me that exam wouldn t cause that. My mouth stays swollen and irritated inside from Sjogrens I am thinking, but I am concerned because there is stomach cancer in my family. I already take a lot of meds and see a lot of specialists. I don t want to add to it.
