Tooth: resolution - Myra

[Guest guest]

Hi Myra: I'm taking a copy of this post, as well as the one from Dave

Allergist. He's either " cautiously optimistic " or " cautiously

skeptical " . In any

case it helps to know of others with similar resolutions. Thanks.

Jeanne

P.S. Do you know where I can find info on mast cell turnover?

Especially the good part where the little *#$ & @'s die off?
