My other half, Rachael, has had partial tooth removed but work was halted after discovering she had an absess. She was prescribed antibiotics but silly girl didnt follow up course. Here it is 2 years later, she chews on 1 side only and still has a partial tooth.
Lately shes been constantly ill with balance problems and unexplained headaches along with other weird symptoms that doctors and specialists cant seem to give an explanation on. She hasnt however mentioned anything about the PARTIAL TOOTH PROBLEM!..Question..Is it possible for Absess toxin after a period of time to get into bloodsteam and create problems??????????????????????

It sounds like she did a very baaaaaad thing.

First, when one doesn't follow through with the full course of antibiotics, the infection can mutate and become stronger and more resistant to treatment with antibiotics.

Second, by just letting the abcess go unchecked, your wife may have inadvertantly caused the release of the new, resistant bacteria into her blood stream. This bacteria can migrate to different parts of the body, such as the heart valves and inner ear, and take a hold. Causing a lot of damage. Your wife may have an inner ear infection that is causing her problems.

You need to take her to a good doctor and have a white cell count done to see if it's normal. Your wife needs to take her temperature a couple times a day to see if she has a low fever which would indicate an infection somewhere.

The doctor may be able to treat you wife with sulfa drugs. I would give it top priority.

It is VERY POSSIBLE for the blood to become toxic. My husband is living proof. An abcess was left in his head for 3 years. The immune system will try to fight. Fighting for that long can leave you permanently ill. Please get checked immediately.
