I have started denosomab and now on injection 4. My tooth is rather painful when I eat or drink? Is this normal and what should I do about it as it’s the weekend? I have taken ibuprofen to counteract any infection.
I'm afraid the nurses do not work over the weekend, so I'm not sure if you have already spoken to someone about this.
Denosumab can cause tooth and jaw pain. It's important to let your specialist team that you are experiencing this and they will advise you further. They may also suggest trying another painkiller if your current one is not controlling your pain.
If you have a specialist nurse (CNS) involved in your care then perhaps you can discuss this with them. You often have to call and leave them a message and they will get back to you.
Give us a ring if you would like to talk anything over. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.
