Good News (For Me)

Tweet

Some of you have been following my unfortunate complaints about the ramifications of getting a tooth pulled and a few stitches. My gums are inflamed, my face is swollen, and I’m in tremendous pain. I wasn’t sure how to get to Monday when I can call the dentist (I usually have pain medicine from my pain management doctor, but he moved my appointment so I can’t get a refill until Thursday). Anyway, I found four of my old pain pills in my cabinet. They are weaker than my usual medicine, so it takes two at a time to work, but at least I can get about five hours free from pain today, and five hours free of pain tomorrow. Anyway, thanks to those who have encouraged me to hang in there. Believe it or not, I have a high pain tolerance (I foolishly walked on a broken ankle for two weeks), but this has set me back badly. Something is definitely wrong.
