Went back to the doctor today. The medicine he put me on Fridayhelped a little but not enough to make it tolerable.So today he's switched me to Neurontin. Dad was on this and he did nothing but sleep. Scares me to death thinking of taking it. But I guess I need to try in case it does help.

I have had a dentist appt set up for 6 months now for checkup. That is on Wednesday. So I will talk to him about what is going on so he can check for the " silent absess " or if there is something else. I really dont feel that it is anything dental cause it just doesnt feel like it. But I can be totally wrong. My Doctor thought it was a good idea to wait to see if it is dental . And we can go from there. I'd just be happy to get rid of some of this excruciating pain..

Thanks again for all your responses and thoughts and prayers. Please keep them coming.. at least so this new medication helps and i can tolerate it well.
