Dr. Love ONLY, The oral surgeon mentioned replacing a person's jaw bone with metal due to the unavailability of 'zometa-bone' from the leg. I assumed it would be embedded and covered with gum, but now I'm concerned about it being exposed inside the mouth. I asked if a bridge could be attached, but he said there would be no place to attach it. I'm worried about the disfiguring appearance and its impact on my grandchildren. Additionally, I have some pinkness around the exposed area that comes and goes, and I'm concerned about the implications of this inflammation.

I am a chronic pain patient with severe scoliosis, particularly affecting my upper back, neck, and left arm. I was taking prescribed pain medication (10 mg of oxycodone 4 times a day), but a urine test showed no drugs in my system, which I believe is incorrect. The pain is sharp and stabbing in my upper back and aches in the rest of my back. I am currently taking 5 mg of flexeril 2x daily and 10 mg at night for my back, but it's not effective. I also have a history of panic attacks and was prescribed geodon, which I haven't had a panic attack in 2 years and want to titrate off. Can these urine tests be wrong, and what can I do for better pain management and to safely titrate off geodon?
