Two posts in one post!? (long post)

Two posts in one post!? (long post)

I forgot to write a post on the 12th of April, dummy as I was, lol. So, what to do? I wrote a extra long post, two days in one post. The 11th and the 12th of April... here we go!

April 11th.

Alright, the Ibuprofen 600mg works,the toothache is less, but it makes me dizzy, nauseous, and I don't know what more, I just felt weird the whole day. But like I said the toothache was less, I wish this whole toothache adventure was over, ugh! . The good news is I have a new dentist, yay! This morning I had everything scheduled for the day, I had my list with all the dentists adresses I searched for, everything ready to visit them and ask them if they still take new patients. BUT! At 8:30 this morning I had a phonecall from my new dentist. I filled in a little form on there site last night, I had to fill in my adress and postal code, and on what day and time I would like a appointment, ect, ect. 

The dentist recieved the form and red it, she called this morning to make an appointment with me, I didn't expect the phonecall so early in the morning, and not even that she would call, nice of her! I couldn't come today cause today was full, tomorrow morning I could at 11:00 but, I would have to ask for a day off again, so no. Friday was full aswell, and next week could, but I really can't wait that long. There was a little bit of time free tomorrow at 4:00pm, that was okay. I will have to ask my boss for a hour earlier off tomorrow. I asked already today, and it was fine. I'm glad I'm working tomorrow, so I'm not thinking of my dentist appointment later on.

Am I nervous? Yeah slightly, I guess the dentist will do a rootcanal treatment or she's gonna pull the hurting tooth out, ouch! But anything better then this annoying pain, I'm tired of it and I'm done with it. Upcomming Saturday starts the biggest record fair ever in Utrecht, I hope the toothache is then behind me. I looked so much forward to this record fair, I keep my fingers crossed. Today I did a few groceries, ordered new medication for my thyroid and went to the free dinner. The couch pillow cases are finally all done, I think I washed them a bit on a to high tempature (40 degrees) cause they shrinked just a little bit. I guess sitting on them for a while will fix the problem. It's all good.

April 12th.



"If it's gonna hurt then just tell me, okay?" 

What a sweet dentist it was this afternoon, just like I kinda expected. I was bloody nervous today, thank god I had something to do today, work! It distracted me from the nerves I had. Ofcource when it came closer to 4:00pm the more nerves came up, lol. Work went well, wow someone from work (a fellow worker) was sent to Denmark (woot!) The huge mat we made and delivered for a customer in Denmark last week had some mistakes, the fellow worker who places the mats here and there and everywhere was sent to Denmark to place the mat. Now that's a trip I tell ya! The worker has tomorrow off, he must be so tired.

At 3:30 I left from my work heading towards the dentist, It was my first visit, I even had to find the place. Google maps helped out last night, no wrong turns just straight to the house where I had to be, I was nerves, nerves of what the dentist will do with my tootache. Funny that it was a normal house where the dentist did her job, the little hallway was the waiting room, small but cozy. When the dentist called me in she introduced her self and asked me about my tootache. The room was quit big and everything was there what a dentist needs, she was nice and very open. 

I told her where the pain was and how it felt, she looked at it and had to take a few x-ray photo's aswell or how you call it. The dentist could see that flammation caused the tootache, she could aswell see that in that tooth a rootcanal treatment had taken place. She talked aswell slightly about a crown, but aswell that the tooth was healty and didn't had to be pulled out. That was a relief, but what was next? She cleaned out my tooth, emptied the rootcanal, and filled it again. I asked for a anesthesia (or how you call it) and she gave it to me. The dentist wasn't rough or hard while doing her job, what a difference with my old dentist. Could it be that the dentist is a woman?

I had a few times a woman before as a dentist, and she was gentle aswell, so, it could be, yes, lol. My new dentist asked me several times, "If it's gonna hurt then just tell me, okay?" But it didn't hurt at all, only the special bleach to clean out my tooth was tickling with a bit of a pain, but that was it. After the treatment we made a next appointment, next Friday at 11:00 I'll have to come back. She wants to see if today's treatment went well, and if I still have pain then. The next few days I have to see and feel if the pain is lessen, like it suppose to be. I'm hoping on it. I'm happy with my new dentist, I have to inform my old dentist to say that I'm quiting with him cause of the new dentist, but that can wait a few days.

Still the toothache is still a bit there, I even feel the anesthesia is still there, but that's normal. Tomorrow will be better, the dentist told me that I have to reckon on afterpain and that the tootache still will be there for a few days, but the other following days the healing will lessen the pain. Good!
