Long story short it was really hard to finally get the answer that it needed to be pulled….they tried a root canal first. The surgeon was very booked so I made the appointment last month for this next week. For the last three weeks I have had a fever (99.8-101 range) constantly….I was told when I asked that it was because of the infection. They have put me on 3 rounds of antibiotics with no sauces. This last weekend my neck and throat started to hurt…not mussel pain…just hurt. I called the dentist today and he said that it sounds like it might be Meningitis. He said we should pull it tomorrow. I googled that though and it sounds serious. If it is that than will it just go away after the tooth get’s pulled. Right now my fever is 101 and I can barely move my neck…I am worried.
Thanks!

I have had a root canal in the tooth for ten years. If it is likely his actions that caused it, what course can I take to get him to take responsibility for treatment since I do not have dental insurance?

Now the root is slightly exposed and it hurts like crazy. I went to the hospitol and they tried to block it. stuck a big needle in it and shot it up with something. They also gave me Tylenol 3. But nothing has stopped the pain yet. Is there a basic home remedy that will help ease the pain? please help I am desperate
thanks
