Necrotizing fasciitis from a tooth abscess

My tooth hurt for 3 days during covid in 2021. I put off going to the hospital for 3 more days. On February 19th 2021 I called an ambulance because I was unable to stand the swelling and pain in my shoulders. I woke up a month later in the hospital. My tongue,one of my vocal cords is paralyzed and esophagus nerve damage. Disfigurement and no feeling in my left side of face. I'm happy to be alive.
