Autoimmune Issues and Dental Problems

Posted by lmcfm1 @lmcfm1, Aug 8, 2020

Does anyone know if autoimmune issues can be related to dental bone loss, or the IVIG treatments causing these or other dental problems?

What's a "weenie?"

Hi Ron and Cilvia,

A "weenie" is a person who is being annoying. It occurs to me, since you asked about it, that maybe "weenie" is a word that only my family uses!

When you say it out loud, all of the long ee sounds are very satisfying. As in, "Stop being such a weenie."

Have a good one!

When I was a child Oscar Meyer advertised their hot dogs as weenies.

My wife, in my second marriage named my penis, 'peenie weenie."

Now I learn a totally new meaning.

We're never too old to learn something new 😜.

I was told that my puffers for asthma could increase gum recession. Needed gum surgery to 'build up' the gums, so the teeth would not become loose and fall out !
That was 2 years ago. I think the benefit is disappearing.
Ask your pharmcist about your medications. They are a wealth of information.

Something that I remember from my childhood in the U.K. The word weenie was also used by some from time to time.

thisoldewe. Thanks for your response. I'll ask the pharmacist about that as well as my pulmonary doc who I'll see on Tuesday.
