He looked at the XRays and was like oops---a few problems.[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] I also need bone grafting because a chemo drug that I[/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF] took last October causes bone loss in the jaw. If there's a[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] remote possibility of something odd or untoward happening, it's gonna happen to me.[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] I went to my other dentist for the root canal and he couldn't find it and after drilling for a good 10 minutes or so[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] determined that the canal is calcified, so I'm going to an Endodontist/Root Canal [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]Specialist.

[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] I have the lowest pain tolerance on the planet and I preface that w/every doc I see----bring out your arsenal[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] because I'm gonna need it![/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] [/COLOR]
