Where to start. I have been through alot in the last year. I broke a tooth on my right upper side of my mouth, I went to dentist and she did a root canel, a week later still in alot of pain so I went back and asked her to pull the darn thing and she threw a fit, then I started to chicken out but she said "you wanted this pulled I'm pulling it" so she pulled on it for 20 mins I was crying so bad, she finally stopped and sent me on my way. I was crying, shaking and freaking out and in major pain. I went to my work and they took one look at me with blood all over my face and sent me home. 2 weeks later I went to another dentist he got the tooth out but it left a hole from my mouth to my sinuses. He tried for 8 months to close it. Long story short, weekly stitchs and packing and lots of pain meds. The dentist went on medical leave without warning so I had to go to a Oral Surgern. He took tissue from my cheek and put it in the hole and pulled a wisdom tooth out on the right side. Every since the surgery I have had alot of nerve pain on the right side, Oral surgern said "I fixed the problem, I can't treat you no more" So he sent me to a ENT dr and I had a cat scan all came out clear. Then he sent me to a nerve dr. Nerve dr put me on 300mg of Gabapentin 2 times a day 15mg Meloxicam 1 a day, 25m amitriptylin at bed time. The first 3 weeks the meds did take the edge off then week 4 I started to notice a difference in the way my cheek felt, the next day is when the new pain started. I am in pain 24/7 it effects everything I do. My whole gum area where the surgery was hurts, i have alot of pain coming from where the wisdom tooth was taken out, alot of pain in my upper cheek, and the new pain in my lower cheek. Nothing I do helps. It hurts to eat, smile and talk. I called nerve dr and haven't heard back, I called surgern he said he will see me Thursday just to give me a peace of mind nothing is wrong. I feel like I am getting pushed around and not treated. I am sick from going to dr to dr. My husband said he wishes he could have his wife back and the mother of his kids back. I am sick of being in pain all the time my family don't deserve this. I dont know what I did wrong in life to get treated like this. Hubby said he is going with me to the oral surgerns office this week cause he is sick of it and is going to tell him to send me to a pain management dr. I really don't think the dr will. It seems to me they like me being in pain either that out of the 3 dentists I been to screwed me up and they are covering it up. Any advice would be great cause I just want to give up!!!
