Not me but Neil. After seeing the dentist and endodontist yesterday he had to make up his mind within 48 hours. So this morning he talked to the dentist and scheduled an appt for an oral surgeon. The swelling had increased significantly in the past 24 hours, he was unable to really open his mouth and unable to eat and of course popping the pain meds.
So the doc cracked the tooth to remove it and there was an abcess. The pain was severe so they had to give anaethesia through an IV. So we are home now, I made some Jello, picked up more pain meds-he was groggy from all the stuff and is hopefully sleeping. When he wakes I will change the gauze and see if he wants to eat. (and take the antibiotics) This is the plan for the next 24 hrs. Nurse Gail is reporting for duty.
So hopefully this time tomorrow he will be feeling lots better
