Wisdom comes at a price

14/11/2006 | blog

I was off work yesterday, and am again today, because of a migraine which is beggining to calm now. Enough that I can face using the computer for a bit anyway.
It seems the cause of the migraine is my wisdom teeth shifting position. The lower right tooth is currently rising up and consequently having to break through the gum which is currently covering it. Consequently, the right side of my face is swollen. If I said I was experiencing slight pain, then I would possibly achieve the understatement of the year award, but with the alternative being going to hospital and having them poke me with needles in order to pull it out, I think I’ll just suffer it for now.

I’m not wanting sympathy or anything. Just noting my excuses for not blogging lately.

    Hun, sympathy here for you. Been there, done that, got the migraine. You REALLY need to see a dentist and get those nasty evil teeth out – I know the thought of it scares you more than the labarynth scares me (!) but it needs doing and it will stop the headaches. I lived through it – so can you!!! And in the past you’ve had longer operations than that – tonsilectomy ring a bell?!
    Luv ya bro!

    Yes, but I was much smaller then. It seems fear is easier to deal with as a kid… probably because you don’t have the choice, Mum says so!
