Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 | I have exposed bone on both sides and they are pieces of dead bone. I hope your man doesn't end up with this. NOw like others here have had, they want to take all of my lower jaw and what'seft of my tongue. I don't think I will let them.I feel good eveywhere on this old body but my mouth and throat area. I will live with this apin and go on.
Since posting this. UPMC, Pittsburgh, Oct 2011 until Jan. I averaged about 2 to 3 surgeries a week there. w Can't have jaw made as bone is deteroriating steaily that is left in jaw. Mersa is to blame. Feeding tube . Had trach for 4mos. Got it out April.
