 Sorry to hear that you are having dramas.  I can certainly understand your frustration with your appointments.
 
 More than once I have nearly donged those guys on the head...and wouldn't be surprised if I do before my mouth is back in some sort of working order again.  Sometimes they just don't get it.
 
 I agree with you that they should do a CT scan to double check that everything is OK.  I have had about 3 since my original surgery to make sure that I have been clear - also I have had a couple of x-rays....
 
 Hopefully you will have a better outcome at your next appointment in the new year.
 
 Happy Christmas
 
 Karen
