Re: Interesting...on the Dr. Oz show today

I developed my bc after a series of abcessed teeth, caused by substandard filling material. I had two molars extracted and still had a lot of inflammation.
It all started when my old dentist retired and another one took over the practice. He was trying to get rich fast. I later heard he was HIV positive, so I guess he thought he needed to make some money sooner rather than later.
Not saying there's a cause-effect situation here, but am wondering about the timing. I also took prednisone for a couple of weeks before my diagnosis.
