Hi Tohrazer,
Obviously you are not in the US because we generally do not have to deal with this waiting thing and can speak directly to the doctor/dentist if need be.
It is imperative that you make your situation very well known to whomever you speak to. Tell them you cannot risk a jawbone infection given your medical condition and you cannot receive your life sustaining treatments with an infection present.
Sometimes we have to take a step back.... sit quietly taking in deep breaths until we are calmed down..... and then get up and move forward with every ounce of determination that we can muster up. Persistence, persistence, persistence... do not let up until you have gotten the attention that you need. Your pain is not normal and it indicates a problem that needs to be attended to.
I wish I could help you......
Any chance you could get help outside of the area that you live in? Are you near the US or a place that doesn't put you on a waiting list??
