View 2 RepliesPregnancy :: Bad Toothache - Dental Work
Has anyone got dental work done while pregnant? I know it is best to get it in the second trimester and the will use minimal local anesthetic but it still makes me nervous. I have a bad tooth ache and I am almost positive it is a cavity but I am nervous to get work done.
View 3 RepliesTrigeminal Neuralgia :: Undiganosed Toothache
I'm almost 25 and have constant problems with my teeth I brush , floss and use mouthwash at least twice a day sometimes more , I have phobias of the dentist and eating hard foods I also will not have a photo taken for the embarrassment of my teeth, even seeing the dentist embarrasses me. Anyway to cut a long story short I had a failed crown due to gum damage and needed an extraction at the front and a bridge fitted. Although I'm still feeling pain in this area. I have been back and forth the dentist with excruciating pain in my jaw ears and what I was convinced of back lower molar, the dentist is at his wits ends as although I've had a lot of work done and do have problematic teeth he cannot find any infection or decay abscess etc that could be causing me excruciating pain , it is possible that I may need a top tooth extracted as it has a very large filling and is tender to touch. I've had a few root canals over the past year but nothing is working .So my dentist possibly thinks I have neuralgia and prescribed carbamazepine 200 mg twice a day for 3 days and not taking pain killers . The pain has definitely died down but the ache is still there so I think it is not neuralgia and there is a problem he is missing in so petrified of losing my teeth being so young !
View 2 RepliesTooth Abscess - Terrible Toothache Under A Crown
I've got terrible toothache under a crown on an upper back molar ... wonderful kind dentist has drilled through crown and "cleaned it out" and put me on 1,500 mg amoxicillin per day for 7 days - going back next week, hopefully for root canal. My problem is, I expected to feel BETTER after yesterday;s "clean out" of roots and starting antibiotics but awake half the night last night in terrible pain and felt far too ill to go to work. Pain is making me cry! Taking Nurofen "migraine strength" ibuprofen & lysine and oddly, swilling with boiling hot salt water provides relief even though I can feel throbbing. Has anyone been here? Can anyone tell me what to expect? I don't want to bother dentist if I dont have to as he's already been absolutely fantastic and I feel such a wimp ... but must try to get back to work.

I've been on citalopram 10mg for 2 weeks.
Iv started getting really bad teeth chattering and jaw aches.
Should I stop taking the medication and ask my dr for a new antidepressant or should I increase the dose to 20mg?

I didn't have any physical symptoms of teeth chattering prior to taking cit.
Omeprazole :: Causing Rash - Lapromazole Causing Diarrhoea
I have a horrendous rash on my feet, upper arms, back and hands. I have been taking Omeprazole for about 6 weeks, and am due to see a consultant in a few days. As no one had mentioned a rash to me, I assumed it was a heat rash, as I have a habit of warming my feet by the fire, but the rash has got much worse, and now I have ENORMOUS blisters on my big toes and small ones elsewhere on my feet and hands. I have phoned the GP surgery as I see this is listed as a possible side effect, and was told to stop taking the omeprazole which I did yesterday. So far there is no improvement, but it is only 24 hours, so I am hoping there will be some improvement very soon. I have also lost my sense of taste and smell which may be due to a bad cold, but I have a very dry mouth and a horrid taste in it when I wake up in the morning. This is also a listed side effect. The doctor I spoke to seemed to think the rash IS due to the omeprazole. Incidentally, I took lapromazole for 2 weeks previously, but it gave me dreadful diarrhoea, so the consultant changed me to omeprazole. I will post another message on here when I have seen the consultant.

I did a dumbest thing in my life - I am from canada. I went to a massage parlor. I did cunnilingus for a max of 2 mins on masseuse vagina. And received a protected blow job. I also deep french kissed her. No sex of any kind.
Symptoms: After 4 weeks since that incident
I have lymph nodes (total 7) around my neck, 1 occipital node on left side (app 1 cm) and 2 on each sides of neck, 3 in front of neck and 1 on right back near spinal cord. All less than 1 cm.
Had mild sore throat few days ago not now. I don't think I have fever.
Had 2 canker sore. Headache couple of time.
Rashes on my neck and chest (on chest itchy)
Yesterday night sweats.
I am not sure if had any cuts or sore on my lips or mouth.
Can anyone please answer these questions.
1) what is the risk of hiv based on my exposure with tongue usage and sores in my mouth?
2) How big does lymph nodes swell in ars? Is it normal to have them around 29 days?
3) which part of neck does hiv lymph nodes swell? Along with front of my neck in regions 1a, 1b, 5 and 6 I have posterior cervical lymph node.�
4) some say cunnilingus has caused hiv in few cases
Some say it has never definitely associated with hiv infection
Which of these 2 is true? I am confused. Even ID specialist have 2 opinions
5) protected blow job and deep french kissing I assume of no risk?

View 1 RepliesZocor Causing Me To Get Tired?
Even though I was aware of potential side effects statin medications might cause, mainly them causing muscle and joint pain, I had little choice but to start taking Zocor after I had heart attack. At that point, my bad cholesterol levels were through the roof and it’s still uncertain if I’ll have to have coronary artery stents placed or not.
Ever since I started Zocor I feel more tired than I ever was in my life. I have a feeling I could sleep all day, with barely any motivation to do anything. Could this tiredness be another side effect of statins?

View 1 RepliesAnxiety Causing A Lot Of Burping?
Is anyone experiencing this? I've been burping a lot and it might have to do with the fact that I'm not eating much these days, but even when I eat a good amount throughout the day I am constantly burping. I'm also experiencing chest pain but usually when I burp it goes away. Is this normal? I'm like freaking out. Has anyone else experienced this chest pain like this? Its not an excruciating pain, but my anxiety amplifies it more.

Dried Sugar Causing A Lot Of Fatigue
Have you ever heard about dried sugar causing a lot of fatigue etc the day after eating?
I hardly eat any sugar (if any at all really apart from proper fruit), however I do like nut and dried fruit bags as a snack.
However I find that the day after I eat a bag of these, I am very fatigued and crabby.
My diet consists of fruit, veg, whole wheat pastas, beans/legumes, nuts, weetabix, fish etc.
I don't even drink nowadays!
The dried fruit thing has been something I have questioned for a loooong time but no one has agreed with my view.
My thinking is that because I eat such a low sugar diet, my body is shocked when it is subjected to so much sugar in one sitting - hence a sort of comedown/hangover the next day.
Diazepam Causing Itching And Acne
I have taken Diazepam before, 3 times a day for a week, over a month ago. Today I took one - but I've been itchy all night since. I've got a few acne-like spots now on my face and neck which are a little itchy, plus my chest and upper back are itching .... no little rash spots, just scratch marks and little light red patches. Am I having an allergic reaction? If so, why didn't I react to it before? A week or so ago I took Zopiclone and was itchy then also. I'm wondering if I'm allergic to their shared ingredient Magnesium Stearate or something.... :? I'm not swelling up or having any problems breathing. Should I seek a doctor like all the websites tell you to do it if you have a reaction? Or is it too mild? I'd like to take another pill (it's only 2mg) tonight but if I'm allergic that may be a very bad idea?
View 1 RepliesGabapentin For Syringomyelia Causing Claustrophobia
I am 41 years old and was diagnosed with Syringomyelia and Intramedullary ependymoma tumors about 2 years ago. I have suffered extreme nerve pain since the biopsy of my main tumor at C7, to the point that I couldn't stand having a shower or my child touching me:yikes:because of the pain! Also increased neurological pain in the whole of my body.
I say thank God for Gabapentin... I take 1800 mg a day which enables me to function better than I would if I didn't take the drug. I get tired so I rest (I can not put this solely down to Gabapentin because my illness also has this effect). The only side effect I have noticed is 'claustrophobia' particularly in the MRI machine I never had it before I started taking Gabapentin ....
I always say 'If I could only choose one drug' Gabapentin would be it every time even before my pain killers.
Mirtazapine :: Causing Depression After 6 Months
I've been on mirtazapine for about 6months now. 3 months at 30 mg and 3 months at 45 mg. I was put on it due to generalised anxiety and mild depression from a buildup of stresses in my life. It hasn't been plain sailing and to be honest the only thing mirtazapine has done is help me sleep. My anxiety is much reduced compared to before I went on, but I genuinely feel like I'm only as good as I am because I've done it myself with life changes etc. I've just gone back to work and it's really good for me socially. 6 months into mirtazapine and I'm starting to become upset by the constant feeling of numbness, miserable mood, irritability, and the weight gain is starting to make me miserable. I can deal with a bit of weight, as i was skinny anyway, but like all my work clothes I purchased a month ago are all now too small. It's becoming upsetting and I can feel the anxiety creeping back in. I feel like the fact the mirtazapine is making me feel miserable and low, is setting off my anxiety again, and I am wondering if anyone else has in fact felt better after stopping mirtazapine? I have a docs appointment to discuss coming off in a few weeks.
