Would you believe me…
Posted in Random Nonsense, Whining on 04/15/2008 03:36 pm by toriif I told you I was yet again sucking on bloody gauze? Of course you would. This is me we’re talking about. Well, onto my mouth saga (sounds way more interesting than it is…). It turns out when I had my wisdom teeth removed, some bacteria got underneath the tooth next to the wisdom tooth. It sat there, festered, and eventually inflamed all of the connector muscles in my jaw.
The antibiotics couldn’t reach this gold mine of ick, so I never got better. Today, the dr found the pus pocket and cut it open, ripping out the icky stuff and suctioning it out. I get to take more antibiotics (whoo hoo!) and more pain meds. Thank the gods that I got to at least have some nitrous during the procedure.
If this isn’t the answer, I want a new mouth.
Besides this, I’m dealing with a crisis of brain, of thoughts, of spirituality and more. Pagan, Buddhist, Christian - I’m just praying for an answer. Any takers? A divine comment would work.
