Stent concerns
Posted: Thu Mar 25, 2004 4:05 pm
Hello, I am prescribing for an elderly women who is presenting with
osteoporosis,arteriosclerosis, bone spur on foot, weak memory, etc.
One of the most characteristic symptoms are these bony growths she
has on the inside of her mouth. They have been diagnosed as exotoses.
I have never seen anyone with such large growths in the mouth such as
this before. I wanted to prescibe Calc Fl to begin with and then
proceede to Calc Carb if the sympt picture still fit. My only
hesitation is that Kent speaks of Calc Fl as 'being similar to silica
in suppuration.' ( The exotoses are becoming acutely problamatic in
that they are beginning to over grow the teeth area and are becoming
slightly sore). So in reading Kent if Im understanding correctly Calc
Carb doesn't tend to suppurate old deposites etc the way silica does
and the way Calc Fl. does according to his comments. I def. do not
want to chance a suppuration of a heart stent. Anyone knowaldgable
about the workings of Calc Fl? Is it possible that it may cause
suppuration around a stent as I fear Silica would? I should just
play it safe and give the Calc Carb? (Calc Fl also covers the
arteriosclerosis, reason for stent ). Thanks...
