I went to the dentist Friday and was told I need to see a periodontics for a full mouth periodontal treatment. He told me I need a bone graft. There is at least one tooth that has a pocket under it and my gums bleed. But, my doctor has me on fish oil pills and I had noticed my gums had started bleeding easily lately. I can not take the normal dosage of any medications without getting overdosed. After I got home, I got to thinking about what was different since the last examination and I remembered my doctor had doubled the amount of fish oil I take. This made me suspicious that maybe I was getting too much so I look online for the overdose symptoms of fish oil and I found that too much can cause bleeding of the gums. I also have allergies and have been having to take over the counter allergy medications more lately. I am in my 60's and I have a limited income so I don't need to spend a lot of money if I can help it. I thought that at my age, I would just take a chance and cut back on my fish oil. If worse comes to worst, then if I had too, I could always get dentures. I hate the thoughts of spending the money on bone grafts and then losing the teeth anyway. Is this a bad decision. What would you do if you were in my shoes including my age, etc.?
