Thread: Tooth ache

Tuesday at 4 am I woke with a tooth ache. I search the cabinet for pain relief pills. Tylenol 500 mg, only 5 in the bottle. Take 2 and start my morning. I search online for dentist close by, no one opens before 8 am. The first 10 or so can see me in later April, May and June. Last call, we can see you at another office at 4pm today. Great, my heart doctor is near, I have a bill to pay and pick up sample drugs. I have a pick up at the drugstore to get too. The dentist office is between them. 2:50 pm, I'm leaving the doctor's office headed to the drugstore. Got a call from the dentist. We are closing early, can we see you at 1:30 pm Wednesday. Sure. I got there at 12:45 knowing I'll have paperwork and finished up at 4 pm. I take Eliquis, need a doctor's permission in writing before they will pull the tooth. Call my nurse, leave a message. She calls back, will forward a form to the office near me. Got it back to the dentist. Head to the drugstore for Amoxicillin. The druggist is on the phone, can't get the dentist to answer. Needs to hear from them that they know I take Eliquis before filling a scrip. Got to be off the Eliquis and on the Amoxicillin for 3 days before they will pull the tooth. The scrip the doctor sent is for Ibuprofen for pain. Can't take it with Eliquis. Ok, I can take Tylenol instead.
Final hear from the dentist yesterday. New appointment Tuesday the 26th at 8 am. Waiting for doctor to tell me when my last dose of Eliquis will be before Tuesday.
The Tylenol helps with pain but not enough to get out and do stuff.

To keep my thoughts off of the tooth I reloaded 1,000 38spl's. Ready for range time. Not Easter weekend, both sons have to work.
