Steak and banana
Posted 12 years agoHmmm yep so my body hates me. I think it knows I now have medical insurance so it's like HEY THERE'S ALL KINDS OF STUFF WRONG WITH YOU, GO SEE A DOCTOR all at once.
Last few days I've been really fatigued, lightheaded, dizzy, numb and tingly, not much of an appetite. I think my blood pressure is down for some reason. It can be anything from dehydration to my anxiety to something more serious, so I'm calling the doctor in the morning. I'll probably need blood work done (yikes!).
Yeah so my dinner was a big steak and a banana to try and get some nutrients in me. Gonna lay down I think. All I've done since Saturday is sleep.
Mostly annoying because I can't get much done. Just sitting here typing is making me wobbly. Bleh.
Don't freak out though I'm not dying.

Update on teeth, stuff.
Posted 12 years agoRight so, I got x-rays done. I need three teeth pulled.
The third molar (wisdom) in the top left, because it's too crowded and there's a cavity in the furthest back. I figured as much since there's not enough room for the tooth brush to get back there. So even if I got it filled, it wouldn't matter.
The third molar in the bottom right (wisdom) is impacted, it's fully formed but still fully submerged in the bone. It grew in at an angle and the cusp is pushing into the root of the tooth next to it (second molar).
That second molar has to go as well, part of the root has dissolved to make way for the impacted tooth, and it's caused an abscess way down inside the bone. So it's actually very dangerous and if I don't get it taken care of, it could become severely infected and actually kill me.
The abscessed tooth is important for chewing and for keeping the bone and surrounding teeth stable. The wisdom teeth can come out ok, but any other teeth that are pulled need to be replaced. Unfortunately my insurance doesn't cover implants, so I have to save up over $1,800 to get it done. Thankfully I have 4-5 years before it's "too late" and I would need some serious bone grafting.
The appointment for the surgery is the 29th of August.
You guys. I'm terrified. I'm a very anxious person and my brain just looooves to jump to the absolutely worst scenario. All I can think about is that I might be allergic to the anesthesia, that my heart could stop, or that they won't put me under all the way and I'll feel the pain. My brain fights sleeping pills. I'm scared that during the process of going under I'm going to have a massive panic attack, or that my brain will be able to force itself awake.
I know stuff like that is rare, or might not be possible, but I can't help it. You should have seen me when my cat was getting fixed, I didn't eat or sleep for 2 days.
ALSO. My periods have been getting increasingly heavier and heavier. I got very anemic yesterday and I'm not feeling much better today. All I want to do is sleep, I have no energy. I'm working on stuff I owe people, but it's slow for now.

Off to the oral surgeon!
Posted 12 years agoI haven't been to a dentist in over 10 years, I just got good insurance that covers pretty much everything dental wise, so I'm taking advantage of it.
I'm just going in for consultation today, getting x-rays to see what all needs done. I have a wisdom tooth that might need to be removed, and a couple of teeth might need to be pulled due to cavities.
So... I'm really nervous about the possibility of surgery since I have really bad anxiety, and I know that if I have to be put under my brain will fight it (I get massive anxiety just from sleep pills).
I have cavities in my front teeth that I'm super self conscious about, I can't wait to get those taken care of. It's to the point that I don't even care about the needles!
Also... I've not been here for the past few days. I've been spending the weekend cleaning my mom's house, and helping a friend of mine get her house tidy. Later today I'm helping another friend organize his place, so I should be back to work tomorrow.
I have no idea why or how three people asked me to help me with this stuff on the same weekend, it just happened that way.
Not complaining though, they're buying me cat food and I actually really like cleaning and organizing.
