    any new info on this?

    i've got a pt who has every sort of strange physical ailment you can imagine, including what i can only think is anug that crops up here and there, almost constantly, for the past 3 years.

    her oh is excellent. no perio. ref'd to a periodontist who couldn't/wouldn't do anything. i've done some debridement on her, given her duke's magic mouthrinse. she gets improvement, but not total eradication.

    i talked to her about doing 4 quads of pocket sterilization just to see what we get.

    she's on bisphosphonates, i guess for early dx of osteoporosis. she's only 44 and her chart reads like a medical text for bizarre disorders.

    what do you think?

    Was the tissue ever biopsied?
    If it is a particular vesicular bullous disease and not diagnosed, over time it could affect other organs including her eyes and eventually cause blindness and other damage.
    Has she been tested for HIV? Diabetes? Allergies? RA?
