Just got back from the oral surgeon for a check up on an abscessed tooth they took out last week. I want to be able to focus everything I have on treatment.  Very good advice, Isiscat!

Hey Everybody Who Will Be Starting Tx Soon:

Try to get in for a dental checkup and teeth cleaning before starting tx.  Having dental problems during tx could be a real buzz-kill!  biggrin
