After butting heads for a couple weeks DH finally had appointment with surgeon today re: PET. PET was clear and we moved to issues that should have been addressed before but hardheaded DH wouldn't pursue. All teeth were extracted prior to treatment and now he has what appears to be the root of a tooth protruding thru gum (explains a lot about the jaw pain he had for about 6 months or more) and we have appointment with dentist tomorrow if we aren't snowed in. Surgeon thinks if it will just pop out, fine, if not...grind down and wait for it to pop up again. Anybody had this experience?
Also, DH has been having difficulty for some time in laughing - chokes, can't get enough air. Breathing test done today...lung capacity is fine and surgeon thinks possibly vocal cords "sticking" due to mucous and dryness not letting air thru. Prescribed an inhaler - Dulera. Ran a search looking for similar problems and didn't really find anything. Anyone else have this kind of problem?
