Wait. Surgery? What surgery? Did you mention this before? Now, I'm far behind and going through hundreds of past posts and *I* certainly don't see anything! LOL Your jaw? Was it TMJ related or something else entirely? Spill the beans! LOL Hugs, Challis Trimm wrote: Yes, it was. I had my surgery today and the Dr. was great. I never fell asleep and I

still remember everything. I don't think they gave me very much medicine or my resistance is high because of the flexeril and klonipin and lortab.

I'm sorry ' I had forgotten about your mouth problems. It's a good thing Challis is back to remind me of things, huh? You sound like me. I have a back molar that my dentist had filled and filled trying to save it for me and it worked for about 4 years. Last fall a piece of it broke off and now more of it has broken off. Three quarters of the tooth is broken under the gums and the remaining part is lose and wobbling. My mouth is so torn up inside around it. I grind my teeth (hence the broken teeth) and after the last break I still ground my teeth only it was my cheek that was there instead of teeth. Ouch! I need to call the oral surgeon and make the appointment. I'll do that pretty soon. lol.... Was it your oral surgery that sent you in the

relapse and into the hospital??? Sharon Re: ' and Surgery? -- Re: VERY good day Ouch! For the tooth and the sores! It seems I do remember you mentioning the sores along the nerves before.

He gave me the steriod IV and then he injected it in my jaw where he did the work. 'Shirley

I am considered an emergency case, so I will have $ tomorrow on my card, pro-rated amount. My caseworker is wonderful. I started crying when she told me the amount.

He is caught up on his 4 weeks! Now to see if he keeps paying or the garnishments start. My food stamps will be a smaller amount now, but that's fine. I have to call them on Monday. Also,

yesterday I found out that we had enough escrow in the house so the insurance is paid until 8/23/2007. So I will be out of the house by then. Or sooner if I'm told. YES, Shirley. There is a Santa Claus....lol Thanks for the prayers and support. It's been a tough week for me. I haven't been sleeping due him not paying and maybe him going to jail for contempt. I was going to have to stop all of my meds so I could pay my bills and eat. Just a lot to think about and deal with this week. But thanks again everyone! It's great to feel such love from everyone. x0x0x0 Shirley __________________________________________________

The wheelchair and walker are for pain and weakness, my legs just can't

support me and they are not working right, like last summer, but the steroids

definitely helped last time my left arm went numb I lost use of it for 5 weeks

now it's just a little week

to get 3 days dosage and I developed steroid induced diabetes while getting the

solu-medrol and had to have my blood sugar checked 4 times a day and insulin if

it was over 200(which was every time) my out of hospital bs is 60-70. Went in

not even using my cane, came out with a walker and a wheelchair.

I'm sorry ' I had forgotten about your mouth problems. It's a good thing

Challis is back to remind me of things, huh? You sound like me. I have a back

molar that my dentist had filled and filled trying to save it for me and it

worked for about 4 years. Last fall a piece of it broke off and now more of it

has broken off. Three quarters of the tooth is broken under the gums and the

remaining part is lose and wobbling. My mouth is so torn up inside around it. I

grind my teeth (hence the broken teeth) and after the last break I still ground

my teeth only it was my cheek that was there instead of teeth. Ouch! I need to

call the oral surgeon and make the appointment. I'll do that pretty soon.

lol....

Was it your oral surgery that sent you in the relapse and into the hospital???

Re: ' and Surgery? -- Re: VERY good day

Ouch! For the tooth and the sores! It seems I do remember you mentioning the

sores along the nerves before. How did you do after this??

My Mom and I are both grinders, too. It's not pleasant the effects grinding has

on the teeth or jaw, is it?

Do you wear a guard? Are you able to keep it in your mouth all night??
