Thanks catfish, and you have to look over Jimmy Bo Bob.<br /><br />He ain't been right since the aliens got him here a while back.<br /><br />SS Mayfloat, don't have but 6 so it won't be to bad.<br /><br />My only thing I asked for was to be put under when they do it.<br /><br />I have always had a problem with getting my mouth to numb.<br /><br />They would shoot me plum full of that stuff and I would get numb about 4 hours later.<br /><br />Guess it has to do with my size or something.

Re: Medical Help

You guys are just way too funny!<br /><br />The lengths people go to avoid the dentist are amazing. No wonder dentists have such a high suicide rate!Everybody hates them.<br /><br />One of my cousins is a mechanic. Last year he had an infected tooth and spent a night with a pair of pliers and other tools trying to take care of the problem himself. The next day his head and neck were 3 X their normal size He came over to help me with the boat and I had to take him to the emergency room <br /><br />I have another cousin who is down to about 6 teeth even though he has 100% free dental coverage through his health plan at work. When he does go, he has to be there for a a day while they rip the latest victims out. <br /><br />My mother told me a story about one of her cousins who used comet or some other abrasive cleaner to brush his teeth - it took off all the porcelin and destroyed all his teeth in short order. <br /><br />I am always amazed at what people will do to avoid that chair!

You guys are classics... <br /><br />Not knowing the culture there...<br />I got NO idea who's joshin' and who's serious.<br />But I do remember having an infected tooth at the age of about 16 and I was crook for weeks with the 'poisoning", so get it fixed. Take the pain now or it will be worse later.

Re: Medical Help

if the situation were less emergent, I would advise garlic and fenugreek, both powerful naturopathic antibiotics ...<br /><br />but as a former owner of many teeth, I can tell you that you HAVE to get it fixed NOW NOW NOW before its too late, dentist, loading dose injection of anitbiotic would be best in my opinion, <br /><br />Once dey gone buddy ... dey GONE<br /><br />on top of loosing the tooth, you can get a spread of infection to soft tissue (facial cellulitis, Ludwig's angina)(no, NOT something Beethoven would get, bilateral cellulitis of the submandibular and sublingual spaces ... that can eventually clamp off the aorta, think of what happens when you bend yer fuel hose over and kink it, lol) (Hint .. break out the paddles!!!!)<br />not to mention spread of infection to the jaw bone (osteomyelitis of the mandible or maxilla),and also to other areas of the body resulting in cerebral abscess, endocarditis, pneumonia, or other unhappy things ... ya dont want that!<br /><br />or ...<br /><br />tie an ice bag on yer head, but I would be WAY more afraid of a cardiac surgeon than a piddlin ol dentist, I learned, I go, I reward myself with a trip to Big Hooters Strip O Rama for going ...
