This afternoon - dentist, root canal part 2. For 6 weeks after the last treatment I was painfree, over Christmas the pain came back, so I am guessing we will start from scratch again…
Thankfully I will be able to work from home this afternoon, I have three hours of phone conferences, can do that as well from my bed, with proper painkillers…and be able to surf here and whinge.
Dinner - hHeinz tinned spagetti. Bah.

Well, it just got worse - tooth needs to be extracted, only option is an implant.
Cost £2500, not covered by insurance.
Slightly freaking out!

Yes, will do, but an implant costs that much in the UK - and it's the one dental treatment I wouldn't consider abroad as it's a longer process...I think Q might be able to give me some advise!
And yes, yikes to the costs. There goes my travel plans for later this year...

sorry you are going through this - one of the reasons my daughter a Dental Nurse does not recommend root canals - the tooth is dead, it will need to come out eventually.
