Oh Cathy, I'm so sorry. Osteomyelitis can be really difficult to treat. I have to say though, in your position I would definitely get a second opinion. Sometimes chronic osteomyelitis necessitates amputation if it is in say, a toe, so I can see where pulling all your teeth might be necessary, but I'd sure want to get other opinions in case there is another option.
Thank you for sharing your story, and please keep us posted if you don't mind.
