marcia115---I am new to this group. I had a tooth pulled, and have had nothing but problems, I have had
a headache for 4 weeks, sorta like a tention one. they took blood and my sedimentation is high so they
put me on prednisone, I have to have another blood test tomorrow.
Has anyone had this problem?

This may be an infection. Was your tooth pulled because of pain? You may still havre some infection there and usually are given antibiotics if this is the case.

@marcia115 I understand that you’ve had a bad headache for 4 weeks. Did it start just after you had your tooth pulled? Have you seen your primary care doctor to check for infection? And did the dentist recheck the area in your mouth?
You have a very general question and this group is for those with an autoimmune condition so you may want to ask your question in the Just Want to Talk Support Group. Link below. I’m sure that you will get some good answers!
