Dental treatment
Yesterday I had a mouth biopsy for lichen planus. Afterwards I had a really bad headache and am now suffering sensitivity to light and difficulty swallowing. The dental hospital says it not due to the biopsy. Has anyone else had a similar experience?

Advice re symptoms please
Hi After a long road and seeing many GPs and an Endo who couldn't help, I have finally found a GP who thinks I have subclinical hypothyroidism and maybe some pituitary issues. I was originally signed off work in Nov and I eventually resigned from my job due to symptoms such as exhaustion, panic attacks

From chronic opioid pain meds to finding relief with facet joint injections.
After three years on OxyContin, I found immediate relief today with facet joint injections. I’m happily looking forward to weaning off opioids and getting back to living life. I almost didn’t give this treatment a chance due to the Dr. being quite rude about my pain meds and questions about the procedure

Does everyone automatically put weight on when taking Pregabalin?
Diagnosed with trapped nerve and unable to tolerate opioids. Have been reading horror stories about people piling on the pounds immediately. I have been on 225mgs daily for a month now and have not gained. Is that yet to come? Hope not!

Antibiotics
Because of my Mitral Valve damage I have to be given antibiotic cover when I have certain dental treatment. I find this knocks my digestive system out of whack and I have been told this is because the antibiotics kill of the good bacteria in the gut. My question is has anyone got any advice about how

Dental treatment
Today I have started on Benepali. The nurse went through all the risks and what to be aware of. She then mentioned dental treatment and one of the issues was root canal. I am due to have a new bridge started on Saturday which involves one root canal. She felt I should still start today but ask my rheumy

Hydrocortisone and fillings...
Hi, I’m due two fillings tomorrow at the dentist. I currently take 15mg of hydrocortisone (10mg am and 5pm). I’m now worried about ‘adrenal crisis caused by stress’ should I increase my dosage before my appointment or is there no need? This is my first dental treatment since starting on steroids therefore

A reminiscence on shingles
An elderly relative with a pacemaker and AF attended Casualty with acute pain in the right eye. The duty ophthalmic registrar carried out a thorough examination and reported that her eye was absolutely fine. 3 days later she returned with severe iritis associated with H.zoster. Antiviral treatment came

Warning about dental treatment
I very rarely post on the site but tap in now and again to see what everyone is up to. In September I had a crown shear off in my lower right hand jaw and found that the underside of it was rotten (the dentist put this down to various chemos I have had over the past 6 years).

Coughed blood.
I just coughed up a little bit of blood. I do not smoke. I do have very sore tooth, could it be that. I’m going to be put to sleep so I can get dental treatment at clinic,cos I’m agoraphobic and haven’t left my house in 5 years. I’m really concerned 😟.

Now have Osteoarthritis too.
Sorry but I just need to whine a bit. I'm just getting my Thyroid sorted (hopefully) by an Endo after years of thinking I had a problem but getting antidepressants from my GP instead because I am only subclinical and can't possibly be symptomatic. Now I find that my back trouble (which was also brushed
