[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 412132, member: 1233"] I am having to start searching for a dentist. We have no money. Literally. There just are not many games and what little we had put back got used up when they messed up our food stamps and we didn't have them for 3 mos. husband refused to go take the paperwork in, our mail stinks if I have to let the carrier pick it up (if she gets two more complaints she get fired and she is union iwth a lot of years in so you know that there have been a TON of complaints about her) and husband refused to mail the forms from the post office. I couldn't drive because I was really dizzy for several months, so we just finally got them back. Now the little $ I put back to try to pay for a dentist for me is gone because the bills had to be paid. The calcium deficiency is eating away at my teeth. I have giant gaps between them all where they have eroded. The top ones are not too bad but the bottom ones are scary. I look like a jack o lantern with the jaggedy teeth. Just this week they started aching, so at least they haven't hurt all this time. I have no idea how we will get dentures for me. We just got the medicaid paperwork for the kids done and somehow husband and I qualified too - which is AWESOME. It will cover prescriptions, which we need, and the tests I need (mammogram and thyroid and bone scan and calcium levels). I am really terrified of the bone scan. Bad as they hurt, well, I am just not thinking about it. I still have to juggle either taking calcium or not barfing. Cause if I take calcium in any form I puke. Including most foods. They warned me that as the bones lost minerals they would get more painful. Anyway, I have to figure out how to get a dentist to do the dentures for free. Medicare will do emergency extractions but that is IT. At least they now cover orthodontics for kids. I am getting Jess evaluated as soon as we can. ENJOY your shopping and eating out and wonderful NEW SMILE!!! I am so happy for you - I cannot think of anyone who has worked harder for these!!! All the stuff you did for your family over the years, plus school, plus everything else - you deserve that bright pretty smile!!!! [/QUOTE]
