Abscessed wisdom tooth and removal

Quite honestly this is one of the most painful things ever. And I've had two kids so I'm not being a wimp. I'm scheduled to get all my wisdom teeth removed Monday. Really freaked out. I'm wondering if meds will impact me differently because of the celiac. I used to respond well to meds, but since Sunday I've been on penicillin then switched to amoxicillin after the first wasn't working. And I've gone through four pain meds. Now on hydrocodone. It's ridiculous and it's all destroying my stomach. Any thoughts or suggestions?  No horror stories please.

The penicillin not working is just because the bacteria that is causing an infection isn't killed by that particular antibiotic.  That should have nothing to do with Celiac. 

 

When your gut has healed from Celiac, you should be absorbing medications better.  Maybe this is just a really painful and nasty infection?

I had my impacted wisdom teeth taken out years ago and it went well.  I recovered fast.  I recall drinking lots of milkshakes and smoothies!  

An abcess is painful!  Hang in there!  If you are concerned about the antibotic absorbing, you could get a shot!  That is what they gave us in the old days.  But you should be healed at this point  from celiac disease unless you were recently glutened.  

Try a heating pad and rinsing often with salt water (if the infection is close to the surface).  In any case, both might make you "feel" better.  

Karen is right.  It could be a really nasty bacteria.   Give it some more time. ?

I have no wisdom about the celiac effect but wanted to sympathise. I had an abscess last year and I was on codeine, tramadol and voltaren while waiting for antibiotics to kick in and a dental appointment and MAN do I agree with you. It was the worst pain ever and childbirth doesnt even come close to that kind of intensity. I actually considered stepping in front of a train at one point.   

 

On the plus side the moment they opened and drained the abscess the pain was 100% gone.  I actually cried from relief.  The dentist gave me more tramadol to take home but I didnt need it.  Good luck.

I'm finally in the mend. Abscess, then four wisdom teeth out then dry sockets then stomach flu. April was awesome. But I survived!

      There are eight essential B vitamins. They are all water soluble. Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys. Thiamine is Vitamin B 1. Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses. Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily. The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is...

      Thanks very interesting I have to see if I should take these 2 vitamins along with my multi and super Vit B complex or if its too much or would hurt me. I don't have any other health issues but would love to see if this improves anything especially to feel stronger build muscle.

I noticed only possible side affect is possibly the first week so body adjusts. Life Extensions carries Benfotiamine with Thiamine and the mega one you mentioned. Not sure if both in one is better or seperate. some reviews state a laxative affect as side affect. SHould I take with my super B complex or just these 2 and multivitamin? I will do further research but I appreciate the wonderful explanation you provided on Thiamine.

Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?

      There are eight essential B vitamins.  They are all water soluble.  Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys.   Thiamine is Vitamin B 1.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily.   The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is Thiamine Mononitrate, a form that the body does not absorb well and does not utilize well.  Only about thirty percent of the amount on the label is actually absorbed in the small intestine.  Less than that can actually be used by the body.  Manufacturers add thiamine mononitrate to their products because it's cheap and shelf-stable.  Thiamine and other B vitamins break down when exposed to light and heat and over time.  Thiamine Mononitrate is a form that does not break down over time sitting on a shelf waiting for someone to buy them.  What makes Thiamine Mononitrate shelf stable makes it difficult for the body to turn into a useable form.  In fact, it takes more thiamine to turn it into a useable form.   Gastrointestinal Beriberi is a localized shortage of Thiamine in the gastrointestinal tract.  High carbohydrate meals can result in gastrointestinal symptoms of Gastric Beriberi.  Fiber is a type of carbohydrate.  So, high fiber/carbohydrate snacks could trigger Gastric Beriberi.   Since blood tests for Thiamine and other B vitamins are so inaccurate, the World Health Organization recommends trying Thiamine and looking for health improvement because it's safe and nontoxic.
