To blythc, just curious how overt where your bad tooth symptoms? Did you KNOW you had a bad tooth with overt pain and swelling? I have a tooth that bothers me some, but shows no infection on xray. I've thought about having the tooth pulled to see if it might be "the source" of it all, but everybody freaks when I tell them this. Like how could I possibly have a tooth pulled that doesn't "show" infection. I had some ozone injections in it and I always had a "proving" reaction that something was being killed(so the ortho said). But he became dicouraged b/c it never seemed to stop doing that reaction no matter how many injections I had. I feel relief when I take antifungals, but it doesn't last very long. SO I am trying to figure out if it has bacteria and my body is allowing candida to florish in order to protect me from it, OR is it just candida in it that won't go away? Anyway, could you describe the tooth situation any more?
