How can i get a referral if i am not currently registered with a dentist.

Can you just go in and wait to see someone or do you have to wait for an appointment? I have jaw pain and neck pain and would like a check up as i'm not currently registered with a dentist.

I had surgery in my mouth 11 years ago due to have a cyst in my jaw. I was wondering even though it was 11 years ago is there any chance that my jaw could just fracture or break? I've been having some pain around that area tonight and i am worried about it.

Not much just said if i feel the same in 3-4 days then i would have to have the blood tests repeated to see if they have gone up or down and take it from there but obviously he gave no explanation which is very frustrating i don't know how to take the results really, I guess the ESR level isn't really high but high enough to show up in a blood test.

I recently had some blood test results back and my ESR levels were a bit high and i was told by the doctor that it's down to Inflammation somewhere in the body. I am worried about Endocarditis now as i know that is inflammation of the heart and i know it can cause heart failure and multiple organ failure, I saw a doctor today who listened to my chest and heart and examined my back. I am also worried because high ESR levels can be due to cancer as well. Should i be worried?

As i said my oral health isn't too great because of op's i have had and other things, I have a few things that need sorting out at the dentist and i shall be getting them sorted out a.s.a.p. I know that bad oral health can cause heart disease, pneumonia, strokes, heart attacks etc, I'm a bit concerned as i'm not sure if how i am feeling is down to a virus or down to my teeth or bacteria or what, I'm only 30, I just hope my teeth problems can be sorted once and for all and i hope it isn't already too late and hope i haven't got endocarditis or heart disease or anything like that, I don't smoke and very rarely drink.

No, I don't take Ibuprofen or anything because of my Asthma i only take Paracetamols and I have only been taking them for 3 or 4 days, My stomach problems started before this time along with the nausea.

My throat isn't that sore, My voice is ok and i can swallow liquids without any problem and i can eat ok despite my bad appetite. I have rang NHS Direct today about my symptoms and seen a GP today, The GP fobbed me off a bit but at least my pulse and temperature were checked and they performed some blood tests.

Well i took Penicillin last Wednesday, Thursday & Friday, I went away at the weekend and left my pills behind so I had to miss them until Monday and I took them Monday and Tuesday and a few on Wednesday before a GP at the walk-in centre advised me to stop taking them incase they were the reason for my nausea and upset stomachs so i didn't have a full course, My tonsils are still quite red and a little swollen but there doesn't seem to be any pus around anymore, Besides there's two types of Tonsillitis bacterial and viral and viral cannot be treated anyway but i must have had bacterial tonsillitis hence being given Penicillin.

Oh and i forgot to mention the other reason why i thought i had Septicaemia, Because about 9 days ago i went to the doctors and got diagnosed with Tonsillitis so i took Pencillin for a week. I had a lot of pus in my throat last week and i know in some cases abeit rare that tonsillitis or pus can get into the bloodstream but as it was last week i'm sure it doesn't take more than a few hours or a day or two to get into the bloodstream and after 9 days i'm sure i wouldn't still be here if i had Septicaemia.

To be honest Endocarditis crossed my mind anyway but i wasn't really thinking about it, I do have toothache at the moment, Had it for 4-5 days so don't know if i have an infection but it's still unlikely to have caused Endocarditis isn't it?!

Joanne5600 has got me worried about Endocarditis now I have had oral problems for a long time because of cysts i have had removed in my jaw and having excellent oral hygiene is quite difficult for me as my teeth got moved a lot and they now aren't straight at all due to a couple of op's in the past. I would worry though about bacteria getting into my bloodstream and going to the lining of the heart and causing heart failure. From what I have read about Endocarditis you can develop it from bacteria in your mouth but usually you have to have existing heart valve problems or heart disease and i don't have any of them to my knowledge and i am 30 years old and the only health condition i have is Asthma. From now on i think i'll take more antibacterial mouthwash to try and prevent any future problems providing i don't have anything like Endocarditis right now.

Hope i haven't got anything like Endocarditis.

Thanks Glennis.

I think what is worrying me is the fact that i feel like i am going to throw up, I feel like this all the time and last day or so it has been bad. Also the last day or so i have been getting shivering and chills. I also feel very lethargic and generally unwell, My stomach is quite uncomfortable and my appetite has been very bad lately and i do sometimes feel like i am forcing myself to eat. I went to a walk-in centre today not too long ago, I wasn't checked over much, My temperature and pulse was taken and that was it really. They did do some blood tests but i have to wait 5-6 days for the results to come back.

Just wondered if anyone had experienced it or knows whether things like tooth decay can cause it. I rang NHS Direct around 8.30 saying I had a slight temperture and felt tired all the time and lethargic plus that I had abdominal pain and felt unwell. They told me to tke Paracetamol and take fluids which I have done.

I have been uite unwell the last 2-3 days, I have been feeling tired all the, getting sweats, having a bit of a temperature, feeling sick all the time, abdominal pain, feeling lethargic and generally unwell, I went to the walk in centre yesterday to see a doctor about my abdominal pain, My stomach was examined and my pulse was taken. For some reason I'm worried that I might have Septicaemia would the doctor have noticed yesterday that I had it if i had it? Can tooth decay cause it? I have a couple of dodgy teeth and was wondering whether bacteria from that could get into my bloodstream? I guess what i really want to know is if I had Septicaema would something have happened by now? As its been 2-3 days.

Thanks. My Landlord posted a note through the door today saying if i don't reply they will have to go through a formal process! Also the interpretation of the email was if i get another complaint your out but not in so many words. I don't know what to say back in my email but i won't be all nice about it because i feel like my landlord is starting to harass me and bug me and feel like they haven't given me a chance to argue my case or anything.

I received a communication from my landlord recently over supposed loud noise. My landlord informed me that they had texted me recently (i never received this text), Then i received an email and i found it to be quite an abrupt email which i am not happy about at all. Apparently, I have been playing loud music in the very early hours, This is not true and someone can verify this, Also i don't even stay up until the very early hours. The neighbour who has made the complaint has always seemed to have it in for me since i moved into my property, He makes snide remarks sometimes for no reason, I don't see him much fortunately, I've never said anything to him or done anything to him and my friends think this neighbour could be doing this just to try and get me evicted. To be honest i am not very happy especially after this email i received, My landlord seems to be harrassing me aswell, Apparently my landlord texted me a few times, they have emailed me and i have only very recently seen the email and now i'm getting notes put through the letterbox. Now, If i had a choice i probably would hand in notice to quit my property but as i don't have any family in this area i would not want to make myself intentionally homeless, However after this i believe that relations between me and my landlord and between me and the neighbour are going to become very strained. The email from the landlord isn't very nice in my opinion and sounds a bit threatening, Basically they never gave me a chance to deny anything and have gone all guns blazing. As i said above i haven't been playing loud music, After living in this property around a year i am sure if i was like that and i was the type to lay loud music at that time then they would have found out a long time ago but i am not a nuisance and do not go around doing things like that. I am not sure what to do but i don't feel i should be all nice to the landlord after the treatment i have received, I will definitely be putting them straight on the matter but feel like thing are now untenable but as i said i don't want to and will not make myself intentionally homeless as if i ever need any help in the future then i won't be entitled to it should i make the decision to leave.

That would be very costly wouldn't it?

Anyone have a LG KC910 Renoir?? Wanting to know how you can instantly upload pics to Facebook? Any ideas???

I like the look of this phone and it seems decent. I need to know something how powerful is the flash on the camera? I have read some reviews saying it is weak and some saying it is powerful. Can it illuminate a room properly? Is it bright enough to do that? Thankyou.

On Windows Live Messenger it always comes up with stuff at the bottom of my friends Messenger saying that i am now friends with so and so. How did i stop this from happening? It's annoying and i don't like the idea of it telling everyone who i have just added.

Been offered a New HP Touchsmart 300 PC for £350. Spec is AMD Athlon II 240e Dual-Core 2.8 GHz, L2 cache 2 MB, 20 in Touchscreen HD LCD BrightView (1600 x 900) 4 GB DDR3 1066 MHz 640 GB SATA 7200 RPM Windows 7 Home Premium Slot-load Super Multi DVD Burner with LightScribe Technology ATI Radeon HD 3200 with 256 MB shared graphics memory Adjustable webcam and built-in microphone array 802.11 b/g/n Bluetooth What do you think?

Is this being offered or going to be forced on people? The reason i say it is because people cannot be expected to take kids out of schools where their friends are and move them to a totally different area which would take them away from their family and extended family. I admit for some people especially single people with no ties it could be an ok idea but it seems a bit pie in the sky to me.
