It has spread from my tooth all the way through my face up to my right temple, so I am one lucky girl. She said it could have gone up to my my brain had I not got onto the right antibiotics.
I feel very confident with her and she is going to put the antibiotics right down into the tooth before any root canal treatment can happen and then another course of oral antibiotics for my face..
I guess that explains the need for morphine!!! I'm currently in no pain so something is working.
She also said that she is going to discount my treatment as I am a working single mum who is studying as she was in the same position whilst studying to be a dentist. I actually feel soooo blessed. Very humbled by the whole experience.

Nic- I am so glad you are okay and feeling better!
Jannies, just saying hi- I am on day 7 and feeling amazing. I found a new hypnosis track and I swear it is changing me from the inside out- it's amazing! Hoping this isn't the pink cloud talking and it's for real.
Love to all of you!

Hi Jannies,
Happy Wednesday! Hope everyone is having a great week. We are expecting rain here the next few days, I was at the store earlier, and people were stocking up as if we were expecting a blizzard!
Nic and Sunny, it is really nice to have you both back again.
Sunny, hypnosis sounds interesting, I have always been curious about it, but never tried.
Bandi, are you back to 100% yet? I hope so!!

Think my infection took the focus off drinking for me altogether which got me through the hardest 2 weeks! Maybe it was a blessing? A severe one but still.. I am still sober lol!!!!! x

Happy Thursday Jannies,
It is a rainy day in California, the forecast has rain through Tuesday!! We should definitely be out of drought conditions after the weather this past month.
Hope everyone is having a great day.

Happy Sober Friday Jannies -
I attended a Celebrate Recovery meeting last night & enjoyed the music, fellowship, speaker & small group plus I picked up my 1 year chip. It felt pretty good!
Hope everyone is doing ok. Hugs & love to all....xxxx

I still have some in my bedside drawer going up to 5 months I think-Haven't been back to AA again to return them (not even sure what the protocol is after a relapse !) I will just have to use them as a personal incentive to re-earn them for myself again!!!
