Question by Debbie Kromer: Medical Questions, gum sore and auto-immune problems?
About 20 yrs ago I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. Since that time I have developed gout in my left knee, Dupuytrens’ in both hands and possibly my feet. I have also been diagnosed with Sarcoidosis of the skin, (they pulled a quarter size lump out of my arm). I had to have all my teeth pulled and before I could start implants I developed a white sore in my lower jaw. There was a biopsy and they checked for 3 different conditions, all negative. This sore is extremely painful and none of the pain or other meds have made any difference. I am now waiting to see a oral pathologist, after seeing a dentist 2 myofascial specialists and neurologist. My Primary wants a cat scan on my lower jaw and neck. This has been going on for about 5 mo. now and I’m getting desperate. Also, I wonder my body seems to come up with a new condition on a regular basis. Any suggestions are greatly apppreciated.
