Hello Linda.
I am having exactly similar situation, I have pulled out my tooth bcs I was feeling like it was pulsing a lot while the swollen throat limps and other symptoms would appear, Dentists were against pulling it out, but I found one who did, even though she didn't suggested it either.
I think the infection transited on 2 more tooth and I want to pull them out as well, but they are not back of my mouth and as I am working with lots of people I don;t want to loose my teeth.
That will be your advice please write me, what ways have you found to fight against it. Also I have been medicated with tons of Antibiotics . And I don't know is it medicine's fault or a teeth fault. I don't know anything at this point, feeling confused and lost
