xgeva
I was receiving Xgeva when they spotted something they thought was possible
necrosis
in my left jaw. Told me to quit Xgeva. I stopped Xgeva for 2 years. Now they want me back on it. I visited an oral surgeon who told me the spot was definitely not
necrosis
. With that I can restart Xgeva.

Jaw necrosis. Check up. Better safe than sorry. Thought I would get away with dying from my PC before I would need to be at a dentist lol.
4 plus years on Zometa so getting a check up for
necrosis
to be on the safe side. One of the members of my oncology team who I see about every other appointment finally for about the 3rd time bringing it up with me I agreed best to get a dental check for any signs of jaw
necrosis
.

Jaw bone necrosis.
I have been on Xgeva for about 3 years. Now my dentist says that I have osteonecrosis of the jaw because a piece of dead bone was found on my lower jaw. The piece of bone was removed and the hole is not closing up. What do I do? Any advise?

Excruciating jaw pain
Had a thorough dental examination and no sign of infection or
necrosis
(from Zometa). I’m taking cocodamol but it’s not enough. Any similar experiences out there and any suggestions of causes and treatment?

Water Vapor Ablation Therapy
The thermal energy from the water vapor induces cellular apoptosis and tissue
necrosis
, leading to a reduction in prostate volume and alleviation of obstructive urinary symptoms. Has anyone here had this treatment or planning to enroll in a clinical trial?

ET / Osteonecrosis / Surgery
Quite unexpectedly 2 weeks ago after 10 days of painful walking,
necrosis
of the head of my right femur (about 50% necrotic) was diagnosed and I'll need a hip replacment within the next few weeks, despite the increased risk as an ET patient of thrombosis or haemorrhage.

prolia forever vs dental work
The possibility of jaw
necrosis
scares me. At some point I will likely need additional extraction(s). Even if I stop Prolia now, the increased risk for
necrosis
will extend fir some time into future. has anyone dealt with this issue?

Likelihood of closed penis degloving (Morel-Lavallée lesion) after 3 years?
If there was tissue
necrosis
or "capsule" in penis, would it still get erect like it does?

Raynaud's in dark skinned patients
Straight to white under the nails and fingertips, it then progressed straight from that to black dots which were the start of
necrosis
. By this time, she couldn't use her hands at all.

Tooth Extraction delayed because of risks while on Alendronic Acid
Explaining to me the risks of Jaw Bone
Necrosis
, a very serious risk with life threatening potential. I have been on Alendronic Acid since July 2023, 1 tablet weekly. Now I’m off them, at least until early May 2024, when my tooth extraction is now planned to be done.

Pins and needles, sensitivity to water 6 months after severe Raynaud's attack with ischaemia
We had no idea what we were dealing with and though her fingertips were ischaemic with some
necrosis
they were saved with 5 days emergency iloprost. Fast forward 6 months, she looks healed though still wears gloves and woollen stockings 24 hours in UK now which is c.20degrees C .

Tooth infection - increase prednisolone?
Concerns: I wonder what harm chronic infection is doing to me and if there are increased risks of jaw bone
necrosis
as a result. Your advice and views would be much appreciated.

Tooth extraction and tocilizumab
Hi I am going to have to have a tooth extraction....dentist says chance of jaw
necrosis
from tocilizumab and I wonder if anyone has had this ....I know from here that it is only a small chance but its scary ! Also will I need to come off medications (tocilizumab and methotrexate) first?
