Wondering if anybody knows if you can diagnose jaw cavitations from head CT scans?

Hmm… Just a regular panoramic X-ray was adequate in my case. The dentists/ doctors looking have to know what to look for---most know nothing about cavitations.

I also had a "cone beam" or "3D" x-ray done at an oral surgeon's office. Maybe it gave more detail, but the pano, again, was enough for me.

Just curious, do you know if you have a familial thrombophilia? This hypercoagulation makes for higher risk of cavitations. I see a doc who really thinks cavitations microbes can "cause" FM / CFS. I hope he's right, and that our symptoms will be less after cleaning them out and healing the "ONJ". Also, there can be body bone osteomyelitis, I believe, from the same causes.

Did you study the NICO website? (neuralgia-inducing cavitational osteonecrosis)

Good luck.

Need to know the dangers of certain drugs doing a "number" on the jaw (skim just the beginning):

Some of the drugs to treat osteoporosis aren't exactly "jaw friendly"!

You also need to know this re: cumulative radiation exposure (read the title):

There is a way to *block radiation* -

Silver clothing...also called EMF clothing! Google it.

Sorry... going way off topic, but can't help but wonder...

If "Greys" do exist...is their skin color an evolutionary adaption to a hostile environment?

I may need to rethink the pros AND cons of

colloidal silver.

Just helpful or curative?

And...


These results indicate that the

pharmacological dose of vitamin K2

prevents both the progression of atherosclerosis

and the coagulative tendency

by reducing the total-cholesterol, lipid peroxidation and factor X activity in plasma, and the ester-cholesterol deposition in the aorta in hypercholesterolemic rabbits.

Can get D3 with K2 as D3/K2

Research vitamin K2 (different from "normal" vitamin K).
