Sooo. Big loss on the scale. But I didn't get it the way I wanted too. Very eventful last few days.
Bit down on something Saturday at lunch, and had a sharp pain in one of my molars. The pain went away, didn't think nothing of it. Got a massive headache later that Saturday. Woke up Sunday with my lower left jaw swollen, and hurting. Went to urgent care, had an abscessed tooth and a sinus infection. Lucky me. So got a shot of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory as well as a prescription for antibiotics. Went to the dentist Monday, he looked at my mouth, prescribed a zpack, then follow it up with the antibiotics I got at urgent care and to come back in a week and a half to have the tooth that I had cracked removed once the infection and inflation went away. Well...Tuesday afternoon, the abscess ruptured (So gross) and ended up back at the dentist Wednesday. The swelling hadn't really gone down, and the doc and I decided to go ahead and pull it, he also lanced my gums and drained the infection. Put a few stitches in to hold it all together. -_-
Get to work today and my coworker is obviously angry with me for being out three days. And I can understand it, I've missed several days recently due to medical reasons. I'm postponing strong pain killers til after work, so I can come to work today and tomorrow. And working 8hrs while dealing with my jaw throbbing, and just get cold shoulder and snarky remarks. Enough of about that.
My Husband will be out of town for a few days too, and just feeling a bit down, and hurting don't help. The only bright side is the scale going down so much. Haven't been able to eat much today either.
Got a call from the specialist's office today too, about all the back stuff. I'll see them on June 19th. Initial appointment will be with the Physician's assistant, and we'll go from there.
Anywho, plans for the next few days. Be mindful of choices and serving size. Eat soft things. Drink lots of fluid, and follow my dentist instructions.
