I was told that my problems were nothing and that what ever was making my teeth fall out and making it difficult to eat would go away by a few drs before I saw a good one. Everything went away ok including my chompers when they had to be removed after a surgery and a reoccurence. How little some drs know. The lump on my tongue was also just a sore that would leave. LOL Oh yes. These all left with a 70 lb weight loss and asll other losses I endured. Find a good CCC and go for it.

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.
