Can a bad tooth cause flu symptoms to vice versa.

[Devil's advocate]

Can't get through to Doctors.

Hay customer with a degree in geology, says shingles. It can go for the teeth & certainly the eyes & makes you feel worn out. Not sure about the ears so may be multiple things happening.

Spine starting to itch, feel like rubbing myself against a wall, appartly the spots usually come 3 days after the main illness.

17% of local market town have flu, coronavirus or a cold. Hence busy Doctors.

Just been to Pharmasist.

He organised emergency appointment for Doctors tomorrow & sent me to book emergency appointment with opticans. He thinks Shingles but my eye needs checks. Actually wanted me to go to A & E on the spot, but that is a terrible place.

Calomine lotion for shingles unless there’s something better by now I don’t know

I have Shingles now, when in the bath it set off the itching. Had it three times before, spots not that bad yet.

Seem to be falling apart, just got up for a drink, sweating like crazy in bed.

Shingles can be deadly painful.

Holy fudge, shingles in the trigeminal nerve can be very nasty. I would be down the A and E if it was me, Opthal will come and have a look at you.

Turns out not Shingles

Theory now is another virus, that has upset most of the nerves in my face.

Eyes ok but need to take drops.

One tooth is really hurting a lot now, so maybe that was the cause or might a tooth with decent roots be pulled because of upset nerves, no idea. Off to Dentist Wednesday after another eye test Tuesday.

Apart from essentials not working, went back to bed this morning, just full of pain.

Update although I can pass a sight test, more detailed examination shows I have glocoma, so will need life long drops & perhaps laser treatment.

Had the tooth pulled it had split in half & had a large abcess underneath it.

Just glad to be rid of so much pain. Going to have an implant fitted in due course.
