Happy Columbus Day!
Praying for all that is best to get you healed quickly and completely! God bless. : )
What a bunch of annoyances you are beset with, save.
You appear to be keeping your sense of humor and good spirits, which is so like you.
I am saying bad words about your doctor’s office and then asking for forgiveness as I pray for a safely expedited surgery.
Thank you, ohioWfan!
Thank you, LUV W!
Thank you, Fudd Fan! How are you feeling?
Thank you, DollyCali! I am hoping that the link that I’d sent you will work for you.
Thank you, LucyJo!
;) Thank you, Bahbah!
I am glad to be rid of the tooth as it had been a recipient of 3 root canals. At the time, I had no known allergies, but since then, I developed an allergy to nickel, which was used in the process. So the way I see it, I am getting rid of something that makes me sick.
Also, I can be more upbeat now that I found soy ice cream that tastes like the real thing (Trader Joe’s) and I paired it with a sliver of apple pie that I’d made.
Full disclosure - I put too much shortening in the pie dough and it’s the messiest I have ever made, but the crust is flaky and airy and tastes wonderful.
I also forgot the fake butter after putting the top crust on, but cut some slits in the crust and pushed it through and it worked out. LOL Not ideal, but it worked.
save, I ALWAYS forget to put on the pats of butter.
ALWAYS.
The push-through method works, Bahbah.
BTW I am watching the HBO series John Adams on dvd and while I enjoy it overall, it frustrates me that they do such a disservice to Abigail and John. Abigail Adams, they’ve converted into a slow moving but quick thinking lady of leisure who on occasion works out in the farm. They skipped the voyage on the ship and skipped how she ran the property on nothing.
John Adams they maligned in his tenures in France, Netherlands and England in order to prop up Franklin, when in reality, both were good men but flawed.
SL, I just read your response to Bahbah about having 3 three root canals on that tooth.
Don’t want to concern you unnecessarily; but,if you don’t have marked improvement now that the tooth has been removed, hope you will ask if there could be a bone level infection caused by the infected tooth.
I know someone who was shocked to find that problem caused by a tooth that had previously had root canal work done on it. The orthodontist who did the surgery said that the abcessed gum was a fortunate, early sign of the problem, because many people don’t realize what is happening until more damage is done.
The symptoms that persisted were a periodic low grade fever, and sapped energy levels despite meds giving some relief, but never entirely getting rid of the problem.
Of course, this may have nothing to do with your tooth infection. Just wanted to tell you about it just in case.
*Hugs*
I have used it, save :)
:) Thanks, LucyJo! Actually the tooth comes out on Wednesday. I just finished the antibiotics last night and the surgeon wanted to make sure that happened first.
He’s seen the pictures and he thinks that he’s got it figured out. But I will ask if there could be a bone level infection caused by the tooth. My energy is great and I have no fever, so maybe it was caught early enough.
I will also add that today, being med free and after 20 minutes of yoga for clumsy people, I feel great and the stiffness is much less (for now).
Heh. I wonder if that is the origin of the slits in the crust. LOL The first baker wouldn’t admit having forgotten the pats of butter.
LOLOL.
Good! I’m sure all is under control. Just being a mother hen here because I haven’t read every post in the thread, and let myself get carried away with incomplete info. ha.
I thought that you had said the tooth hadn’t come out yet, and then I read that post that was none of my business and got confused. lol.
So glad that you are feeling better. : )
(((Hugs))) This is helpful, LucyJo! There is so much that is going on inside different parts of my head, it’s worth noting that this may be an issue, but it’s been over 14hours since I’ve taken any antibiotics and I feel fine.
Thank you so much for keeping us informed! Prayers continue...
I’m so happy you are doing better. :)
