The Good News Is…
May 5th, 2007 by Rian | Filed under Miscellaneous.I made it through my oral surgery OK. And, I’m in so much pain that I cannot eat much of anything but broth, yogurt and gatorade. And I don’t foresee being able to eat much of anything for the next several days, so I should lose a few pounds. Hey, I gotta look on the bright side of this since I’m feeling so horrible!
The procedure that is causing me the most pain is called an apicoectomy. It’s treatment of a root canal that has gone bad over the years. They have to cut into your gum and do something to the root. I got it done on one of my front teeth (where I have a capped tooth from like 14 years ago), and let me tell you, it ain’t fun.
I’ll post more in a couple days when I’m feeling better and have lost a couple pounds! 
That sounds traumatic. It’s good that it’s over now. Hang in there with the weight loss! The successful people ride the ups and downs but commit to the long term (so she says after a night on the fries & chocolate..)
