Missed Fired Start For The 48th Year Of My Life

Its great teeth they hurt you when they grow and when you have them taken out at the end of the tooth life.They give you even more pain ! Life of a tooth !
Yes it all started to me back in september just as my year 48 approached me.That tooth was removed.The other tooth what needed removed.Had to wait for gum to heal of the one just taken out.So on the 9th October 2013 booked in to have it removed.It was stubborn to get the bottom back tooth in my jaw out but after huff and puff my dentist.She got it out.(thats the tooth i mean)Well be in there 48 years.It was out and just give time to heal and get my feeling back in my face.I didnt expect what to happen next it floored me.Thursday morning still swollen in my face and by friday morning it was like the size of a cricket ball.So on the phone to dentist in to see her.I got an infection on jaw and cheek.She put me on antibiotics.Started to take them friday afternoon.
Not until i tried to sleep on friday night that couldnt sleep.Then i remembered after car accident on antibiotics i never slepted. Antibiotics do that to me i cant sleep when taking them.Also cant look at computer screens etc to long as my eyes hurting to much.Friday no sleep and same with saturday and face still swollen like it been hit by cricket ball.Sunday did manage a couple hours sleep.With no sleep and not eating i was not looking to good at all.Tuesday the sixth day i had to go to the emergency dentist as mine on holiday.Debbie took a look and i had infection in the socket where the tooth was removed aswell my cheek being swollen with infection.
As dentist Debbie cleaned the infection out of socket.My eyes where streaming with the real pain as she cleaned it out.No i didnt screamed but it what strength i had left in my body to ignore against the pain.
Since tuesday after tooth socket cleaned and antibiotics finished aswell and Debbie prescribed me Amoxicillin for 7 days.As i write this my swollen cheek  has gone right down.My tongue is getting back to the right colour and iam not feeling cold anymore.Did have a good nights sleep the last 2 nights.It will take a while for gum heal up perfect as long as no more infection in it.
Now just have to build my strength back up and get my life back on track.
So my start to year 48 in my life missed fired in style!
