Chris this is good u have a good thorough dr. it sounds like. And as long as
u stay so willing to do whatever he wants to find out what's wrong hoepfully
sooner or later, sooner rahter later hopefully u will find it out. How did
the dentist appt go. Now it's my turn to head off to the dr. for a follow up
on how the depression meds r going, and to do the physical for the guidedog
dog schhol. So, how did your dentist appt go? Mine went well but it was
wierd because my mouth really afterwords. The last time I had a filling done
it didn't hurt to bad afterwords. I guess every experience is a bit
different though so the next three fillings will hopefully go well. Man,
it's so wierd because growowing up I had such good teeth it's obnocious now
too b getting so many cavities with not having changed my diet. Anyways,
gotta few more thing to do before my next emdical addventure isn't it wierd
that we always have stuff happening on the same day LOL.
