Ok it might just be me but has anyone else experianced this???
This was my first OFFICIAL sign of MS tho I know there was more but this was the first one the dr's took seriously lol....
Right after having my daughter I had a few fillings done. It went ok except I had alot more pain than a normal person would from just 2 filling and the novicaine wore off after a couple hours. About 1 1/2 weeks later the entire right side of my face went numb. At first I thought I had a stroke, no one in my family has had MS and it never occured to me I had it till it was mentioned and I looked back at all my symptoms together then it was a duh momment lol......
Anyways back to the story, at first I was diagnosed with bells palsy and followed up with my dr who agreed. But I started having more symptoms. I was so fatigued I could barely take care of my newborns basic needs, I had to hold onto walls to walk, I was slurring words and went from being smart enough to pass the state bar without testing to speaking like a toddler.
I had to write down feedings and diaper changes cause I couldnt remember them. I was so upset with the dr's not listening I went to another dr for a second opinion. He said right away "you have MS, we just need the test to confirm it" within a month I had the confirmation....
I have not been back to the dentist since then (almost 5 yrs ago). Im so scared that the dental work is what caused my first flare up. Ive lost 2 fillings and now am in major pain, I have a appt in 2 hours. Im scared to death. PLEASE someone give me your experiences with dental work since being diagnosed......
I am not getting the work today. I am going for the initial exam and to explain my situation to him and to hopefully come up with a way he can fix all my teeth without the use of novicaine. My teeth are in horrible condition and I cant put this off anymore, I hope all the worrying is just in my head.
