Just started on a new regime of weekly b12 injections. Have been very poorly again. No pick up from IM one last wednesday. Did a sc yesterday as could hardly move aching weak. Sore head ect. Today really felt the difference . Got to the shop to get my mums shopping z(90 now) felt okayish. Getting out the dip.

At lunch a quartre of the same tooth fell off. Feel sick. 5 days post antibiotics too that always make me feel ill. (Well did in 2004 when last had them for another tooth.

Been having probiotics .

Dentist will see me on Friday. But it seems also to have to be eternally grateful

I had to wait a month initially to be seen so got an infection. Dentist said to save it. I was prepared to loose it. Now more trouble .

Sorry to any dentists but I'm sick of being ill. So 3 hours respite.

Rant over . I just need a break.

Hi Nackapan hope your feeling a wee bit better tonight.

Dentists are always going to say save a tooth it keeps them in business.I think it obviously needs removed if it’s still breaking and causing you so much distress,not an easy choice I know but I’d consider it.

Hope your picking up take care xx

Thanks. Yes just need s delay beforec another course of antibiotics.

I agree and 2as prepared to have it out. Just thought I'd go along with it as I knew it would be crowned but the whole process disrupted as emergency work only. It probably would've been crowned by now. Really I think once a course if treatment starts it should continue.

Anyway s few hours of feeling okayish was great. Told to put a temporary filling in. 6 chemists later as all sold out!!

Now dreading doing that . It says it has to removed by a dentist within 48 hrs.

Strange the IM injection did nothing last week. I actually dreamt the nurse didnt actually do it as for once painless. Then asked on next visit how I was. Testing ti see if I really needed it. Glad the sc one had the right effect.

I have a feeling will be used up quickly after the day I've had.

Hope you've picked up.

Yes I had to get my son some temporary filling from our chemist as he struggled to find any,his filling also fell out anyway I got him two lots and he said it was useless.a local dentist told him to buy baby bel cheese and take the rind off it and melt it then when it’s cool enough to handle pack the tooth with it as a temporary measure.Ive never heard of this have you?needless to say he didn’t do it he got dental filler off eBay I think.

Yes mine kept falling apart every time I gently bit down. Some stayed in but didnt cover the sharp bit.

Made my mouth sore too!

Baby bell cheese. Well I never. Wi give that a try for sharp bit.

Thanks

I’m not recommending it Nackapan I’m just saying that’s what the strange dentist said to him,I’d be a bit wary in case it sets hard and presses on any nerves so I’d personally give that a swerve.

I think you’ll feel better with it out if it’s fragile enough to break off then it’s just a matter of time before it’ll go anyway.it seems to be making you really suffer it’s not worth that.xx
