Keep Feeling Mastication

[tyellas]

I had an extraordinarily pleasant weekend, seeing all kinds of people, going to the Mineral Show (they have prospecting field trips!) working on a freelance web site, and eating carefully. When I let my vigilance down at a friend's house for a beef stir-fry on Sunday, I had to go home and repeat my self-dentistry of Friday night, finishing off by stunning myself with painkillers once more. I'd had a hard time BELIEVING that my jaw had hurt That Much on Friday night. Surely I was tired - I was burned out after my week - something else had to be wrong. But no, Sunday's reprise showed that I hadn't been hallucinating.

Today, and tomorrow, I am back on tender things (scrambled eggs, pumpkin ravioli) with antibiotics for dessert. There is No Time for dental care tomorrow, since I'm off to Christchurch to give a talk. I'm packing a meal (pumpkin ravioli reheats just fine) and painkillers.

I have just barely gotten the hang of running two additional blogs. I'm trying for two posts a week in each one.

Yipe! If your tooth hurts that bad, it sounds like it could be root canal territory. Isn't there any way to get in as an emergency visit?

I will certainly be having words with my dentist when I can. Which is tomorrow. It's in remission again, so fingers crossed.

Sorry to hear that you're in so much pain. Hope you can get it dealt with ASAP!

It comes and goes, which is the freaky part...

Welcome to Chch.If you get time pop into TeamDental on Riccarton Rd for a checkup - they are both good and cheap.
Will you comment on what is left of our city?

I will, not that I'll be seeing much of it, just two office buildings!
