Sore all over… again

The last day and a half have been rather painful, and rather than put everyone through the gruesome details… I’ll be brief. Instead of just the usual migraine that I’ve been getting lately, my jaw and teeth began to throb and ache all night long on Tuesday. I wasn’t able to get any sleep and it got so bad that around 6am, I went into emerg to get immediate treatment. When it was all said and done, I was precribed anti-bodies for an infected jaw which they think is causing my migraines. They think the infection might caused by a cavity that I’ve neglected to get taken care of. So if I want to blame anyone for my pains, all I have to do is consult a mirror. I’ll be the first to admit I should have taken

But right now I’m feeling much, much better. The anti-bodies are doing their job and the jaw is feeling much better. The pain killers I was also prescribed are the bomb, but I’ve been very hesitant to pop they for just anything. I’ve been saving them for when I really need them. They also suspect that my jaw might be out of place, and that itself is another issue that must be resolved soon. So even though I am scared shitless of the idea and think that they’re all evil… I set up an appointment to visit a Dentist for the first time in over a decade. I’m not looking forward to this, but lucky for me the next available butcher isn’t until Tuesday of next week. I could have gotten an apppointment for tomorrow but I have already missed two days of work this week, I can’t stand to lose anymore money. I also managed to make a trade to get Tuesday off, so the loss of income will now be minimal. I’ll still have to do some OT this weekend to make up for the time I’ve lost already…

Like I said above, I’m feeling much better… but will make the necessary trip next week to make sure that what happened this week doesn’t happen again. But for now I’ve got to get back to work and try to make some hours back. I had plans to go out for supper with some friends tonight, and I’m not sure if that will go ahead. I’ll post again tomorrow to let you know if that did. Until then, everyone take care and I’ll be around…
