THE CZickness LII....Autumn or Fall? No matter...season is right for a CZ!

[mcapo]

Yeah, but he lives in a veritable mansion ..... move over Mar Lago !

Not to brag but we do have a stocked 25,000 sq ft pantry.

Taj Matami

Taj Matami

Ok....that's good!

See, guys, that's how you are nice to someone.

 

[MindfulMan]

Does this dude look "nice" to you ? We're CZickos .... banditos !
We come with our guns drawn, and our fangs out !!!

GM CZ friends.

By the way, if anyone wants to tangle with me today ..... good luck !
I'm feeling meaner than the proverbial junkyard dog.

They pulled teeth until the blood was so thick that the dentist had to stop. (I'm not exaggerating .... that's what she said)
Then, I was told that I might have to go to an oral surgeon to get the remaining bits removed. I go back next Thursday for more X-rays.
Plus, on top of the fact that I can't eat, or drink anyway, they started me on antibiotics, and my stomach is already protesting.

Did I sleep last night .... hell no.

 

[Bennettjh]

I appreciated your story, mcapo. Don't let these guys give you a hard time.

 

[MindfulMan]

I have photographic proof, but if you're queasy, it's not for you !

I hate to hear that, sounds awful.

I take probiotics if I have to take antibiotics. It seems to help the stomach issue for me.

Thanks, man. I've broken bones, and had some gnarly operations, but this is miserable.
I'll have to remember to request (if possible) probiotics next time. I just looked .... they gave me Amoxicillin.

Damn, I'm surprised they didn't punt in the beginning to the oral surgeon. My dentist outsources the heavy lifting stuff for the most part from the start. Drags out scheduling, but for the most part (excluding my last trips) keeps from having to get in the middle of something and go elsewhere.

Sorry to hear this. Always disconcerting to get into the middle of something like that and have to continue it at a later time.

Sorry to hear that amigo. Sounds like they gave you the wrong antibiotics. Not all of them will tear your stomach up that bad. Hope you're able to deal as long as needed.

The first three teeth came out somewhat easy .... but the last one broke off a root.
By then, they couldn't control the bleeding. My number was up, I suppose.
Thanks !

Thanks, WT. They offered a pain prescription, but I refused. At one time, I was taking Schedule 2 pills for my lumbar problems, but I quit all of that last winter.
I'm surviving on Advil Dual-Action (it's new, and was recommended by the dentist).

The problem is you're taking an antibiotic that's rough on your stomach and then adding advil which is also rough on the stomach. Double dose of no fun

 

[wtburnette]

I always ask the Doc or Dentist for the antibiotic that is easy on the stomach, but still effective for whatever issue I'm needing it for. Usually I have no issues thanks to that, but I can't take advil at all without getting serious stomach issues.

Wow ... not Advil !

By the time I left yesterday, I wasn't talking ..... I just wanted to get home.
So, I didn't even inquire about the type of antibiotic.

Mike, I’ll keep you in my prayers. I’ve had dental work that was very unpleasant but nothing like what you are going through.

Ibuprofen is known for being hard on the stomach. For some people worse than others, like myself who can't take it at all.

Thanks, Chris. I'm sure that some of the dental trouble is my fault. When I was in my 40's , I didn't go for the preventative maintenance that I should have.

Ah well, I'm still standing, and I bet my shooting hand is as workable as always.
