Hi Vowel Lady,

Do you still have that root canaled tooth or did you have it extracted?

I remember you said you purchased it, but did you get the opportunity to read the book by Dr Robert Kulacz and Dr Tom Levy... The Roots of Disease, Connecting Dentistry to Medicine?

He tends to call it "atypical TN," and sometimes "nerve injury." I'm ok with these terms since I feel my pain and injury are basically "atypical" since I don't have compression in a nerve in my brain. I believe they need a category for "sadistic, Unintelligent, uncaring, greedy dentists drilling or doing some other stupid thing to the TN." SUUGDDDSOSTTTTN....that's me! I'm on a LOT of expensive meds and have good days and bad. It is very difficult and I try hard to keep my sense of humor.
It is weird how doctors will sometimes (maybe more often than we realize) agree to do procedures with little to no need or hope of success. My doc made my situation perfectly clear...what happened to me and what my limits are.
