Title: Well, I'm off to the oral surgeon's office
Post by: kellyt on December 17, 2007, 10:52:00 AM
I'm going for my consult today.  Pray I'm able to have the tooth extraction done in January.  My transplant team is chomping at the bit to get me in for my cardiology work-up.  Honestly, I am too!

My life was pretty much boring up until the last few months.  Now there is a different doctor's appointment to either schedule or go to every week!   And I would accept a temp job Dec. through Jan. - making things more difficult!  aarrrggg!      :banghead;

Ain't that the way it goes? It's either feast or famine with us. We have a quiet life...or we have an, um, well, interesting life!!!

Good luck with the surgery in January.

Just want to wish you luck!  Going thru all the
appts and testing necessary for "the list" can
be trying.  I hope everything turns out fine for
you,
Anne

I was just going for a consult, but that over-anxious oral surgeon (say that three times fast  ;)) was ready to yank the tooth today!    I would have let him, except my dental insurance is capped for 2007, so I must wait until January.  We have it scheduled for Jan 11th.

He said that once I'm numb and such that the "pulling of the tooth" would take about 5 minutes.   Made my day!
