Ha... well at 77 its not a pretty site. My regular dentist was off ill for a year and did not get better.. she was the kindest person, let alone dentist, we ever knew and it was heartbreaking.
So new dentist said 3 teeth out! I went to another one who tried to save the teeth (last August started)and with my tinnitus, unknown pain in both ears waiting for EnT, but also slight hearing loss but can also pick up certain low volume that hurts my ears (hyeracousis) and prior tmj and I get a numb cheek. going through four double-drillings.. I must admit I said The Lord's Prayer to msyelf as it was happening.
The freezing ensured no pain but the noise of drill outside and inside my head was ............. fill in the blank. Now as I say I MIGHT be having reaction to the anaesthetic and they may send me for general anaesthetic... all the time my tooth hurting. That was awful how children were treated.... almost child abuse. I lived in UK then and had free "school dentist" who had the old fashioned rotary drill and NO freezing of gums - we were all crying our eyes out.
Yes @joybringer1 I think it only makes sense that we at least find out what we can before getting the Covid vaccination, especially with other illnesses. Actually, as I am a believer in M.A.I.D. for myself, I would rather my dose go to a young adult/with children whose death would have more of an impact than mine (yes I have given this a lot of thought) and I realize everyone is different but it's my preference: I totally, totally, support those of any age who want to have everything possible done to continue to live on this Earth. Mind you, although I am not scared of dying, I am scared of living in pain and distress as my Mum did and my brother did) but no assisted death allowed in UK and neither of them deserved the pain and suffering (sorry to bring up this subject but it is what it is). Hopefully millions of lives will be saved with the vaccines .. it's the only way out of this ...far too many millions of innocent peoples of all ages have died but for some who are at the brink with other illnesses, the side effects will be the straw that broke the camels back as they say.... am I wrong?
My spouse says he will take it even tho he has had heart bypass surgery 4 months ago and on 13 medications... he doesn't worry about anything..... wish I could be like that!! 🌹
