My name is Carol,

I have been sick now for nearly 3 months. I had felt my bridge upper
left quads were loose or had a dental issue toothy ache. I went to the
average dentist, he told me I had necrosis of the bone where the pain
is, not feeling too comfy after he told me I was way overprepped for
the bridge some years back, but the bone is dying, getting smaller and
cant hold. blah blah blah, so I went to my doctor asking ? feeling the
pain now in my lower jaw feels like it is spreading. he gave me a
referral to a upscale DDS. I got a panoramic view, showing a lesion
above the painful site. my sinus cavity is soap bubbles and cloudy,
yet I dont have a stuffy nose. he said the advanced bone loss complete
upper teeth, and moderate of lower jaw. prognosis is bad for the teeth
without the sinus issue being in some sort of remission. He said get
to an ENT right away and C/T scan of sinus. by now my face is swelling
and having daily headaches. the C/T shows moderate sinusitis but
again, no symptoms and large filled cyst? it is so full the orbit
bone symetrically is 1/2 in view. He wants to do surgery on the cyst,
but the pain is in the jaw, and my bridge is now wedged up more stable
but now crooked. I dont know what to do. the jaw bone is spongy, my
roof of my mouth is spongy, my lymph nodes on the C/T show left
multiple small and camping on my jugular, but feeling huge now like a
bag of walnuts in my throat, my clavicle is swollen all the way to the
A/C joint. I am on antibiotics now 6 weeks including a shot. I dont
feel any infection,blood tests of course just show high end of normal
on WBC, RBC's are border low and platletes are high end of high range .
Chest xray negative. I have had a abcess tooth before, this is
different. under my arm is swollen, and my left breast gives me heart
attack like pains. Other than this is am healthy 43 yr old female,
weigh 98 pounds and in great shape. this is driving me crazy. I am
thinking Maxillary Ameyloeblastoma or gangrene by now. All symptoms
are on left side.and are spreading fast I feel it spreading inside then
few days later, swelling there too including my left foot when sitting
pitting edema above ear and foot. My thorat is so swollen from glands,
and are having trouble making spit to swallow food, let alone not being
able to chew on the left for 3 months. I have a small ulcer on roof of
mouth that doesnt go away. can someone out there answer any of my
concerns, the doctors I dont have alot of faith in nothing has been
addressed or aspirated or biopsied yet. PS i have an HMO.

Thanks you,
Carol


Not sure why this post was appended to mine.
You have a variety of symptoms; some are clearly dental; some clearly are not.
You need an evaluation of your sinus symptoms; this probably involves culture/sensitivity and antibiotic treatment, not necessarily biopsy. You haven't made clear why you would mention ameloblastoma, or if someone suggested you had an odontogenic tumor.
You need a normal workup by a competent dentist and a competent physician. If you cannot get this within your HMO you must find another way.

Good luck,
Steve
