in Sept while Tom in hospital
I got 2 implants- an month later one had to be taken out
Dr said it failed. Also said I had a tooth next to it that needed
a root canal. I got a root canal and new crown. Sill in pain
Also a huge lump came up on neck.
I had another root canal and on meds. So far on 6 rounds
I went to 2 different oral surgens, I have a infection in the bone.
Sat the pain was so bad I asked Tom to take me to ER
Today I went to see a infectious disease DR.
I will have 6 weeks on IV meds. I have the picc port in now.

I just want pain gone

Oh my Jill, I was thinking of you big time yesterday as we were all day at the hospital in Columbus for Greg's visits.
So sorry you are dealing with all of this.
I certainly hope all of your pain will be eased. :happy94:

Ah Jill...I hope the antibiotics kick in quick and your pain is resolved. Mouth pain is probably some of the worst out there.
Hope they get you fixed up quick.

Jill....I'm so sorry. I pray the antibiotics will do the trick. I had an implant about 5 years ago, and I am still not happy with it. Won't do that again.

Oh Jill, that's terrible you've been suffering all this time. I hope this treatment will get rid of the infection and you'll be pain free during it.

So sorry to hear this news. I agree that mouth/teeth pain is just the worst, but to have all of these other issues on top of it is just unimaginable. I hope you find relief soon. :happy94:

The funny thing is 4 years ago I got 2 implants and they were and are still fine
After these 2 new ones I could actually chew on both side with no problem..
The stress of Tom being so sick didn't help me any. I felt good until the last week he as in ICU.

I had 3 implant failures. I spent 20,000 and having nothing to show foe it. I’m sorry you are in pain, there is nothin worse than mouth pain. Hoping your antibiotics keep in quickly.
