Hi forstyjohn,

Well I give you A LOT of credit for putting so much effort into trying to get a logical an definitive diagnosis. I am truly sorry, although not surprised, with the nonsense you have received from the dentists that you have seen. You obviously have something going on and hopefully the Endoscopy will provide a clear diagnosis.

Hang in there..... I am sure you will get to the bottom of this sooner than later.

Keep us posted....

I brought my ct and mri and he had a look at them and said I have sinus issues but no oral issues. I then showed him multiple videos of puss coming out of my gum. I asked him how is puss not coming out the gum, as the video was playing, and he said that it's not coming from the gum. Since there is no hole, it must be coming from somewhere else. He looked me straight in the face and said he didn't see puss coming out while there was puss coming out. He also took a periapical xray and showed me there was nothing wrong in the gum, other than my gum on the side where the puss is coming out healed weird.

He suggested I go through with the endoscopy, so I'm going to do that. Right now it's my only choice. I'm hoping and praying that the endoscopy fixes the problem or at least shows something that's wrong in my sinus
