Dentures

I'm sorry, this is not a new topic, but I have to get this off my chest. I was on 600mg of Lyrica for fibro for about 2 years, give or take. Same brain damaged feeling, no short term memory, a little bit of dsylexia. Gained 60 pounds, swollen hands, feet, joints, fell out of bed about 6 times. Had a speech glitch. Sort of like stuttering but you can feel it in your brain. But, my favorite? Teeth-b-gone. Broken, rotting, something chips off everyday. Even my crowns(which I paid an arm and a leg for) and caps are popping off like popcorn. How am I dealling with this? Super Glue. Until there is nothing left to glue in anymore. I stopped the 'Medicine' cold turkey. Lots of shaking, skin crawling, shaking, hot/cold flashes, crying, wanting to actually BE nuts. And of course, no one wants to take responsibility. I am on disability. No health insurance or dental insurance. When you are toothless everyone assumes you are a degenerate and an illiterate. I have a college degree. So what? Big deal. All I can do now is pray. Can't eat, I have no chewing surfaces. On the good side! Yes, there is a good side. My beautiful mind is back! I can walk, or rather, waddle. No drunk feeling. Oh God, please help those of us who unwittingly stepped into the role of 'guinea pig' only because we wanted to feel better AND we trusted our care givers.
