SVR and teeth probs

hey ev1,just thought id drop in and let u all know im now about 9 months post tx and still svr yey im home clear.i am so happy and i feel like a new woman,i am now studying hair dressing at uni and loving it and i have more energy to keep my house and life more organised and of course more energy to do things with my 5 yr old.
the only thing im having probs with is my teeth(my gums are stinging all the time and my teeth are getting eaten away from the gumline but i dont care cos im cured and if i have to end up with faulse teeth then so be it at least i am greatful i am healthy now and my liver is hopefully not to damaged,havnt had biopsy yet so dont know) and getting the flue alot but i always catch evthing so thts nothin related to tx.
i hope all ppl get cured and i prey that these newer drugs only get better and less harsh on our bods.stay strong everyone and keep soldiering on through tx cos we gotta all try and get rid of this demon,GBU all.

GREAT news Beck!  We are all warned that teeth issues might be a problem for us but when considering trading in a few teeth for a healthy liver it wins me out every time.  My gums hurt too - I thought it was just me with that so I'm glad you mentioned it at least I know we are both crazy together if anything :)

So very glad you are doing so well that is just a great great update!

I guess I was fortunate with my teeth, one or 2 cavaties since TX.  My tongue hurt more than my gums and still does a lot.

Have fun with your child and school.  Very gald that you are SVR

I'd like to blame tx on the periodontal problems which cost me a small fortune to fix but they were there before treatment.  During treatment I did my 6 month check ups but I wasn't very diligent about flossing and to be honest sometimes I would fall asleep without brushing or flossing because I didn't feel good and I was lazy.  Serves me right.

i have always had really nice teeth, see the dentist on a regular basis. i recently had my cleaning done, my teeth have been really sensitive, now they think i have gum disease, they want me to see a specialist. i am going to wait till tx is over i just brush and floss after anything i eat, i do not know what else to do at this point. good luck to you mary ann
