Visit to PoW Dental Hospital 5 Dec 17

Re Extraction of 3 molars which have disintegrated under general anaesthetic.

I could have done this over the phone.  The trip into Randwick was completely unnecessary.  The visit turned out to be an interview and completion of paperwork for the surgery.  I took the paperwork with me as I find it difficult to complete this type of paperwork without my records.

I have been taking dunosimab six monthly - whilst it does no good; it was supposed to do no harm.  The dentist told me it has the same action as a biphosphonate; it makes the outer bone brittle and increase the chance of necrosis of the jaw.  So I have to wait at least 3 months until the effect has worn off.  The surgery is now to be in April.

I will be refusing dunosimab in future.
