Spellbound, thinking of you today with your dental procedure. I just can't imagine your pain. IMO there is nothing worse than mouth/teeth pain. The medications I have taken have caused me to have just about every tooth root canaled. I hope this procedure helps. CFS is no joke and a lot of people don't realize the side effects and ramifications of the illness. I think you are amazing. Wishing you little pain and a speedy recovery. Xoxo

I can't believe it is 8 weeks until Christmas. Where has this year gone? For those of you who go to the stores or malls, are the Christmas decorations out/up yet? Is there Christmas music playing?
The leaves are still on the trees here in Delaware and have not fully changed colors yet. Usually, the third week in October it is glorious with leaf color change. Maybe because we haven't had much rain? Is everyone else on schedule with their leaves changing? I lost a month somewhere being sick and I am a bit confused to say the least lol.

Spellie - was today extractions day? Be careful what you eat ... nothing spicy, hot, etc. and be sure not to suck on anything. No straws, ciggies, etc. A dry socket is extremely painful so if you start feeling severe pain rush back to your dentist for a dab of oil of clove. :heartbeat::heartbeat:
Just by chance daughter's sprung me---yes Xmas is present at the mall

Hey!
Zuri - the stores here already have Christmas stuff out in one aisle, and the next one has Halloween stuff, and another one has stuff for Thanksgiving... this is our RiteAid store here! Also the supermarket has Christmas stuff too. WAY too early for me!!
I shop thru catalogs I get all year long! No malls for this girl!
Does anyone know "who" the Mod is for this thread? I'd like to ask them to start a new thread for us. And I agree Nore we should cut off at least 9 pages of posts!
Well, tomorrow I probably won't be posting in the morning, depending upon what time I get up, as I have to take the Huz to the hematologist for his bone marrow results! :fingers: fingers crossed that it will be a "simple" solution!
See you all tomorrow - hopefully come back to a new shiny thread!! :happydance:
:seeya:
added: see to have no problem right now to post... we shall see! oohhh - I might be able to post a picture!

Thanks so much, Zuri. Very few people understand CFS. I am doing pretty well after the extractions.
Thank you, daisymae! It has been 12 hours since my dental work (extractions and a bone removal from an over-extended tori). I am STILL partially numb. The only good thing is that I could not drink until the past hour, and still very carefully. Eating is impossible still..... what I might get down tastes like metal! Yuck. I may have found the perfect diet. (couldn't get him to stitch the mouth shut for a few weeks. :giggle: ) Only have a bit of discomfort in one area where the major work was concentrated, so I am doing great.
OK, now I'm having trouble with this thread. I will ask the MOD if we can get a new thread
ETA: sent the message for a new thread
I had to give up trying to catch up here on the iPad. I could only scroll a few posts and then kept getting kicked out. Nothing worked (go to first post, thanks, reply with quote, etc). Seems to be working good on the PC right now.
