I used to get those all the time.....nasty tasting and smelling. Haven't had any for a long time now. Don't know why.

Apparently dairy makes tonsil stones worse. I was tonsil stone free for years and then one day they kept coming back. I finally started doin my own removal (gross and I used to gag like crazy) but after the removal of the stones no more bad breath and no more bad taste.

First thing I'd want to know is if you are using a nasal mask and if some of pressurized air is leaking out of your mouth. That can reduce the efficacy of treatment and it can lead to dry mouth/bad breath.

There are tons of threads on the forum about "mouth leaks" if this is happening to you.
