i just realized i have a dental appointment on thursday to have my teeth cleaned.

i always bleed a little when they do it.

but i'm thinking this is not a good idea when you have thrush. i mean wearing a white fur coat in your mouth and then having them prodding and poking around.

think i'll cancel for awhile. what do you think??

Are you afraid it will cause you pain?? Is that what you mean?

I'm wondering if the dentist might be willing to give you DIFLUCAN!
Call to cancel and ask the person to tell the DDS that you have thrush. See if they offer to help!

hmmmmmm

well i might go because i've had this headache and major jaw and ear pain ever since i had that bridge redone and two fillings.

i'm thinking all the dental work has caused my tmj to really flare up and that bridge might have to be readjusted.

didn't know a dentist can prescribe diflucan but since i took my last pill i'll keep the appointment.

i just hate to cancel appointments.

do dentists treat thrush??

yes dentists are trained for all oral diseases

well i called and can't get in until wednesday at 11.

right now my jaws are absolutely killing me. i had to take 1/4 of a vicodin this morning. i'm almost in tears the pain is so bad.

am wondering if one week of diflucan could cause this? my head feels like it's going to explode, my ears are killing me, i feel like total crap.

i did have that bridge work done in september so the bite could be off and then i finished the last diflucan yesterday. so maybe a herx. i don't know.

all i know is i am in serious pain.
