Hi. I'm caught in a Doctor hamster wheel. I got three root canals and in and out implants. Now I just have implant no teeth daily throbbing. Dentist did brain MRI suspect MS I am 56. I seen neurologist yesterday. Now contrast MRI. I am allergic to most pain medications. I seriously don't know where to turn. Obviously this is a lot bigger than I'm saying because there have been multiple doctors involved and somehow each one of them have dropped the ball. I got three went on vacation and so did a nurse. Over 2 months and I'm still trying to figure out. First MRI was supposed to be with contrast and they screwed up. I feel very alone abandoned insecure scared in a new state in the south due too husbands career. Exhausted in Georgia.

@lamerx what do you know of sudden onset of throbbing in two teeth that never existed until j had a bridge put in. I seriously feel like a puzzle missing pieces. Doctors that not only drop the ball but needles on floor and still use on me. This has been crazy to say the least
I am not a dentist nor an oral surgeon nor a medical doctor, so I'm afraid I can't explain your symptoms. Your statement about doctors dropping needles and then using them on you has me deeply concerned. I hope you reported this situation. I learned a long time of go, if I know something is wrong, I don't sit there and take it; I refuse the procedure and ask to see another practitioner. Good luck.
Hi. I did report. Doctors hospital here in Augusta have reached to me several times they have talked with the nurse. I wish she had been reprimanded and late today they called to see if they could reimburse me for out if picket expenses. Plys the radiologist contacted me. I'm hopeful they learned something and that I didn't contract something that hadn't revealed itself. The doctor that performed the procedure has not contacted me. Thanks for your reply.
to tlgregg60 Yes, one will go to eye dr, and dentist bec of area that<br>hurts. When trigeminal neuralgia was discovered in ER, they just gave<br>aspirin, so I continued in that vein. It can come back slightly off and<br>on. ladyjane86<br><br>
Hello, ladyjane85,
I'm sorry for your pain. I encountered TN 21 years ago before & after a root canal procedure. Then, I was using 800mgs. of Ibuprophen, every 4 hrs. . . . .which only took the edge off. Eventually, it seemed to disappear on its own. Now, having had another root canal, last March, seems to have ended the remission. I now am using 600mgs. of ibuprophen, every 6 hrs. & 10mgs. of Rx Flexeril every 8 hours. This dosen't eradicate the pain, but, hopefully, diminishes its severity. At times I feel hopeless; perhaps this Group can offer remedies, as well as support. NSAIDS can cause internal bleeding, so we can't take large doses.
