i ams goin thro the same thing right now. i have teeth (molars) that are infected already been on 12 days of levaquin the pain went away for maybe 1-2 wks.. back with a vengece.. i dont have dental insurance. and have already paid 5k for teeth that had to be pulled out in 04 along with things for my TMJ . i dont have the money right now to have them fixed. went to an oral sur. last month that wil not do anything becuas ei am too young this is his reason.. because the rest of my molars need to be pulled i wont do root canal. i now am goin to have to go back to the uni hospital when i had the last done for 2xs more money because no one else will touch me and i have to have sedation becuase lido doesnt numb or novacaine.


but yes rsd roots your teeth the meds help to enable this to root the teeth.

I had the tooth out last Thursday, and was still in pain today so I went back to the dentist. It's dry socket. Leave it to me to not heal correctly! I just posted something on the dental issues board, too. I am having an awful pain in my NECK, too, and it feels like someone punched me in the jaw. I'm wondering how long to expect this to last? I also have a fear of necrosis, since I was on Fosomax and Boniva for a bit last year, and of course if there's one to have complications with something, it's me. I'm hoping this heals up "normally," but I'm wondering how long I should give it before I really suspect something else to be wrong? They did treat it with the medicated guaze, and the inside of the mouth feels better, but the jaw and neck (and ear) still hurt. Pain, pain, go away!! :(

i have tmj and with any dental work that is how my jaw feels.. do you also have this.. ? well im glad that tooth is out but not glad that you are having so many problems .. im like you if anything was to go wrong it would be me too LOL i just have bad/dumb luck since RSD go figure

hope that you get some control over the tooth pain

No, I don't think I have tmj (yet!) With the way I'm always locking my jaw and grinding, though, that'll probably be next!

yea dont hold ya breath thats for sure.. LOL i have just found out that i have cluster headaches and apperantly on everything that i have RSD the only other more painful is RSD go figure i guess im an over achiever huh LOL:eek:

Ha, Ha!! :winky:

my sister is a pyschologist so i get analysed for free sometimes LOL she is the one that told me i was an over achiever about having both of the most painful things in the world LOL

Maybe you could get into the Guiness Book?! The holder of the most painful medical problems! Sounds like a sister to want to analyze you! I'm a psychologist by training, too, but I chose to go into teaching college instead of practice. But my family has been well-analyzed!

yea no kidding never thought of that LOL
my sister graduated in 06 and instead of goin into practice is a store manager at a BBQ place here and makes more money go figure LOL but she still makes no qualms about analyzing anyone she has a encounter with LOL thats just how she always has been .. LOL lucky me LOL

how are your teeth feeling today?
