Premonition
I'm not sure who all I should allow to see this, so I'm just going to leave it friends only.
In the event you do not feel close enough to me to share personal medical information, please feel free to skip this. Although I would be delighted to entertain any suggestions or positive comments anyone might have.
So anyway, I don't remember how many people I've told about it, but I have a longstanding premonition that I will not live to a "ripe old age".
At this point, I have spent most of my life wondering what will happen.
For a fair while now, I've considered it a strong likelihood that I will finish my days as both of my parents have done. It appears that both of them suffered from some form of heart problem. Though I am grateful to say that they both died in their sleep.
Oddly enough, I have not yet presented with any form of heart malady. I have however been diagnosed with high blood pressure and hypothyroidism, for which I am now medicated.
I'm working on a disability application, as many of you know. So obviously there are plenty of other things that are wrong with me.
Quite recently, I have been having strange symptoms. Anxiety, weird little pains, uncontrollable mood swings and so on.
Much of it could be attributable to my recent surgery. For those not already aware, I had a very successful partial hysterectomy. And according to my doctors, my recovery has been going quite well.
I am quite concerned about my mouth. Although it causes me almost no pain, I have had serious problems with cavities throughout my life. My insurance covers none of the dental work I need. I am aware of the decay every day. And I even have some broken teeth.
I have heard stories of serious complications due to dental decay. And I seem to remember hearing something about side effects from swallowing the associated detritus.
So obviously I'm quite concerned about the possibility that this may be a serious health risk for me. And I have no idea what to do about it. I have been told that there are no dental schools, or anywhere close by, where I might receive free or at least really inexpensive treatment.
I don't know if this will be the thing to cause my death, or not. However, it would be not only deeply embarrassing but quite revolting to think I would die from tooth decay.
