Osteomyelitis is an infection of the bone. It can be bacterial or parasitic in nature. Ultimately the infection leads to necrosis or death of the bone. I have had a variety of medical and holistic treatments for osteomyelitis of the jaw including 9 surgical debridements with bone biopsies verifying chronic osteomyelitis. Please see my history for more info.

Pre-op today. Had new panoramic x-ray taken today. The infected bone in the right maxilla was more obvious today and the doctor pointed it out to me. Unable to see anything in the mandible yet though. Surgery will be tomorrow in Sharp Memorial Hospital in San Diego at 6:30 pm PST. Have to be at the hospital at 3:30 pm PST. Will be in the hospital for 3-4 days. Will try to keep up to date on here.
