Lady Sage Days

This little guy was a treat to myself yesterday and today there was nothing that I could have blipped of any real interest.

I saw the dentist this morning about my tooth that had the filling disintegrate yesterday and everything since my last check up had changed. Why do they do that and not tell you ?

My previous dentist had become someone I trusted to explain things to me and who I knew had my best interests at heart.

Apparently he was no longer there and I had to see someone else who told me that I'd need to have two teeth out by general anesthetic at the hospital where mum has just come out of.

I did say that I was nervous at the start but also asked if she could take them out what would it be like etc and she said that she didn't think she'd be able to do it with the way they were. So she did nothing at all.

I've got to go back on 28th December for a check up because I need some work doing. I know I have a little filling to be done. I don't know this woman from Eve, how good she is, what her motivation is or anything. I've had dentists who were completely money orientated at the cost of my dental health.

She said one of the teeth was a wisdom tooth or maybe she meant that another tooth, a wisdom tooth would need to come out to prevent problems in the future... but there may be nothing wrong with it as it is.

Working on that basis she may as well take the lot out to prevent future problems in teeth that are ok or have a slight problem. Already I am getting concerned and suspicious. It doesn't take much after everything I've been through in the past with medical professionals.

She said my previous dentist worked on problems as they happened and she prefers to work on a preventative basis.

So as things stand she is sending something off for me to be contacted to say when I can go in for a consultation and then after that they will tell me when I'll go in to have these teeth removed.

It's not like I haven't been for years. I go to every check up and look after my teeth but I hadn't had a reminder, probably due to the changes and now I'm almost back to square one and she was talking to me as if I had left attending.

I can't eat on the left side of my mouth at all. I slowly ate a mince and potato meal tonight and could melt some chocolate in my mouth.

Mum's assessment went well although they were expected here at half two they didn't actually turn up until half four.

Nothing seems to be going right for me lately and I can't understand why. It feels like the wheels are coming off my life.
