Guest guest Posted May 14, 2002 Report Share Posted May 14, 2002 Tina-Your doctor chuckles, mine just grunts -I have trigeminal neuralgia, my dentist doesn't believe in it-although, there can be NO other explanation, the pain is unique. He says that they call things neuralgia/syndromes when they can't find out the cause of the problem. My dentist has been piddling around with my teeth for 3 years now and if 2 million other dentists can't find the cause--I don't know what makes my dentist think HE can find the cause.....after 3 years, he has filed my teeth down, removed and replaced fillings, made me a bite plate for nighttime use and this and that, and it is no better. I have a cavity that needs filled, but he can't fill it because the air/water spray from the procedure causes me to nearly leave my body in pain! On the 11:00 news last night, there was a segment on the use of procrit for fms/cfs they said that the cause of fms/cfs was that people with fms is that they suffer from a decreased production of red blood cells--and procrit helps. My bloodwork has always came back with my red blood cell count & hemoglobin counts have all been on the high side of normal (14-15).... -2 kmnewberry@... _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
