lizzybennet: (weirdest thing)
I'm going back to see the oral surgeon this afternoon. There is something wrong back there, I'm sure of it.

Please don't let this turn out like the time I thought my c-section incision had an infection and it was just normal leakage. Or the time I thought my internal sutures had ripped after my appendectomy and it turned out to by completely normal post op pain. I'm completely paranoid that I'm being, um.... paranoid. But there is a flap of skin overlaying my molar and I just know it's not suppose to be there. I bite on it everytime I close my mouth. That can't be normal. I think it must have worked its way loose from the stitches.

I wish I could shake this feeling that I'm completely mistaken and the dr. is going to say "Everything looks fine."

I just thought of two more times I went to the dr. thinking something was very wrong only to find out what I was experiencing was normal. When I was pregnant with Petey I had shooting pains in my abdomen and I thought my c-section scar was threatening to rupture. It was just muscles stretching. Another time, Zack refused to walk for 2 days so I finally took him to the dr. (he was 4). The dr. did x-rays and Zack got up and walked out of the office. I was so embarrassed. He had literally been crawling and dragging himself around on the floor, complaining that he was unable to walk.

Someone reassure me. Tell me I'm not the only one who over-reacts after medical procedures.

I have a dry socket.

I'll spare you the details, but that was the most painful dental experience I've ever had. I almost kicked the dentist. Literally
lizzybennet: (subspace message)
I'm feeling much better now that the aggravated area has calmed down. He packed the socket with medicated gauze, and the medicine must be working. Sorry if my previous entry was a little dramatic. I was just so surprised that it hurt that badly. It didn't hurt so much when I went in, but when I left I was in tears. I tried to hide my face so that I wouldn't scare anyone in the waiting room. I think I was crying more from the trauma than from the actual pain.

But you know what? My dear sweet hubby showed up unexpectedly and saved me from complete and utter despair. I didn't expect him to come to my appointment. I was already seated in the chair when he walked into the exam room. What a relief to see his face. He left his car at the dentist office and drove me home so that I could recover from my emotional overload. I'm so glad he's mine.

Guilt
What is yours?
Explain yourself
Culinary: Pnut butter and fluffernutter sandwiches Nothing like pure sugar for lunch!
Literary: The Comics Often the comics are the only part of the newspaper that I'll read.
Audiovisual: That 70's Show I know, it's sophmoric, offensive, and just all around idiotic. It makes me laugh.
Musical: The Bangles - Walk Like an Egyptian In 6th grade my friends and I had to perform a "routine" to this song. I've loved it ever since.
Celebrity: Ashton Kutcher He's just so pleasent to look at! And another reason that I watch That 70's Show.
