Dental infections can cause many symptoms, yet medical authorities are in denial, or worse.

Chiropractic treatments helped ease some muscle pains, and of course the Chiro said he could resolve all my health issues.

Acupuncture helped relax me and it did stimulate blood flow and of course the guy with the needles said that my immune system will be restored and all my health issues will be better for it.

Those are just two examples of things that should work, but don't, in people with a chronic dental infection.

------

Long ago, when I was 7, the dentist told me that "with that much local anesthesia, there is no way you can be feeling this"... but years later it is widely accepted that dental infections can render local anesthetic useless... Which means that as a 7yr. old I bravely endured the drilling of "live" root, too scared of the authority of the dentist to say any more after upsetting him once allready that day.

And on and on, medical therapies that don't work, and conflicts with so called authorities:
- repeated anti-biotics that did nothing, nothing GOOD that is, but did manage to ruin my gut flora completely and no doctor ever helped me restore it.
- denials by WCB that anything at all was wrong with me
- refusales by welfare and disability people to help me financially
- marriage to a medical woman who could not take my side on this and therefore lead to divorce and fatherless sons, plus they all had disgust at me for being so lazy as to not hold a job for long and "malingering".

From personal to professional and all things in between, my life was ruined and I had to endure pain and disabling health problems all because I had a medical problem that was not identified or accepted.

The problem was chronic dental infections from cracked fillings, from comprimised enamel from so may fillings as a kid [yes, I brushed regularaly, more than my friends did] and later on, root canals that seem to grow their own special bacteria.
[note - evidence - in Britian today, it is illegal to drill enamel of children under 12 years old, and instead an 'ozone balloon' is used to kill cavities without comprimising the enamel, because they know there are terrible consequences to that]

Once established, with the help of anti-biotic overuse and immune system damage, these dental infections cause so many health problems and symptoms that they will call you a hypocondriac. Sweating, fatigue, muscle pains, headaches - all going on for YEARS, likely almost 30 years in my case.

Doctors said "the Trigeminal Nerve is the one part of the body we let the dentists work on", and dentists said "thats medical". No test to identify the bacteria, no research into the effects of certain bacteria on the body, it is totally ignored.

Yet, it is as common as dental fillings. I am sure many others, if not most others, also have what I had, perhaps in a much lighter way, just enough to make you feel poor but still able to work.

Or maybe I am just living a fantasy, looking for anything to allow me to be lazy, to collect welfare, to take drugs. Thats what the authorities settle on, as a way to excuse themselves from one of the biggest health issues of our time, in industrial society where people can afford dental treatments from childhood to death.

I begged, actually got on my knees with the dentite Dr. Kuiper once, to have my teeth pulled...it has taken me over 7 years to get the extractions done... no molars - fake or otherwise - to chew on would normally raise a concern for dentists... The pain became diagnosed as Trigeminal Neuralgia [by the doctor who refused to treat the Trigemninal Nerve area] so I could be prescribed Neurontin for the pain, as an off-label use of Neurontin by the way... But no testing for bacteria despite my hints.

So is it just a racket? A way to make money, and to hell with the pain and disbility?? Or, are the dentists and doctors reall ignorant of this possiblity? Or, am I wrong, there was no infection, and all the health improvements after extractions were done are just in my fantasy? That I suddenly, inexplicably, became "un-lazy" after extractions and started exersizing and fixing my car and cleing my house and finding work?

I think you have to decide for yourself - to go up against so many authorities will take an enormous amount of personal sufering to allow you to see it. Quite likely, only when you have that much pain, and get no help or sympathy, will you see that they are not really there to help you, and that the doctors and dentites are in denial... or they are just ignorant of this possiblity because their schooling didn't tell them this one.... or that they are in conspiracy with each other as a way to increase business and have it for your lifetime.

One of those is true, and any of them being true is damning to the North American health care industry. And shattering to so many personal lives, like mine.
