i still be illin' ...

Got in to see the doctor this morning.

He agrees that it's like a sinus infection. Got antibiotics and two different meds for congestion.

So why do I still feel like crap? I hate the toothache part the worst. That just bites. What if it's really a toothache coinciding with the sinusitis?

And why does this have to happen Thanksgiving week? Fuck.

The doc said that if I don't feel a lot better tomorrow morning to call him and he'll set up an X-ray. I'm guessing that's not good. When they have to X-ray your head, it's a bad thing.

Speaking of teeth and Thanksgiving ... you guessed it, yet another story.

So one Thanksgiving week I had a wisdom tooth that was fucking killing me. I was with a different dentist than my normal guy, who rocks even though I hate going, because work changed health insurers.

I ended up going to a butcher. Fucker. He pulled the tooth, but part of one of the legs broke off. He kept trying to dig it out. Unsuccessfully. On the day before Thanksgiving.

So I end up with a fucked-up mouth on the best day of the year to eat. Plus, he schedules me for a specialist oral surgeon to dig the remainder of the tooth out ... but since it's Thanksgiving weekend, I can't get in till Monday. Bastard. Butcher. Fucker.

By the time I get into see the oral surgeon Monday, he tells me the wound has healed and that it would be more trouble than it's worth to cut it open to go after the tooth shard, especially since it wasn't bothering me.

I just know that, at some date in the future, that's gonna come back to bite me on the ass ... like it will erupt out of the side of my mouth like a boar tusk or something.

Pray for a miracle, people. I need to feel mucho better when I wake up or this Thanksgiving will officially suck major ass.

Random Guam Fact Of The Day:
• You're shitting me, right? C'mon! I'm in pain and I'm sick and ... bleah. Deal with it.

Sorry, Dzer. I know how bad it hurts, as I was recently in the same situation myself (sinus infection and toothache).

And I spent 2.5 hours this morning in the dentist's chair, watching the sadistic gleam in her beady little eye.

Such is life. It can't always be kisses and orgasms, now can it?

DZER said...

aroused girl: it's much, MUCH better today ... think the antibiotics are finally kicking in :)

and no, it can't ... but the more kisses and orgasms, the better, no? ;)

DZER said...

castufari: if you do, I will send you something Guam-ish in return — T-shirt, ballcap ... you make the call!
