The rest of the story!
Ok so you heard about the episode at the dentist with my face melting pain. The story doesn’t stop there. Yesterday the pain became unbearably intense and around 3pm I had to go see if the doctor could help me. She came in, did the usual temp and blood pressure thing, all the while I am thinking: “Just get the scalpel and proceed with the amputation of my face!” Anyhow, I don’t think she was convinced of the pain I was in but she said the magic words…… Steroids and antibiotics. One shot to the buttocks (Forest Gump style) and one dose of infection killing horse pill and suddenly……I am a new man! For a while I forgot what it felt like to have no pain. I mean I have had my wisdom teeth pulled and it didn’t hurt like this did. So, it turned out to be a sinus infection from the dark place! Call me a baby….. but you would have fainted from the agony. Later!

Okay, I left a comment to your previous post before reading this one. Silly me. I know exactly how you feel. Last month I had a similar infection, and I too went to the doctor complaining about my jaws and teeth hurting..and he told me about all the sinus cavities that we have in our jaws. Who knew?! I know..it hurts!

Well number one I am soooo glad you feel better, but I’m even happier that you don’t ice skate. At least I don’t think you do . . . . do you?
