could I ask how people have coped with shingles in the face that has  affected there teeth.

it’s so painful even with taking painkillers and nerve medication can even think about eating so painful only started on Monday so not sure how long this will last .

i am going to the Dentist next Wednesday just to check that it’s not caused a abscess it runs from one from tooth to the front bottom and finish in perfect line with the top no pain on other side.

  Any  addictive but be much appreciated .

    Sorry to hear of your pain try Neurontin or carbamazepine they save my life carbamazepine was the best but I was allergic. Hope this helps.
