Still not used to injections/needles
Jan. 30th, 2019 09:33 pm Monday I had to go to the dentist to have two teeth filled. I'll admit that I skipped dentist for about a year. While I of course "survived" the aneathetic injectionS, it set me back in my quest to get used to needles in a medical environment.
The first two were not as bad, and I got the nurse to cover my eyes and hold my head down. However, the dentist had to set a third injection, which he put in the jaw joint and boy did that hurt. DAYS later, I am still not a happy camper, cannot chew properly or open my mouth.
Have to have blood taken on Monday, we'll see how that goes...
Also, since the day after the dentist, I have a sore throat and am tired and grumpy -_- I really hope that I won't come down with a cold, cannot really afford to miss work currently. Wanted to buy ginger for tea, but the ginger at our Aldi looked so sad (dry already) that I decided not to buy.
