It never rains.....

So pissed off right now. I went back to the dentist yesterday to take my xrays back Obviously he had to look at them to see what needed doing. Well lets just say it wasn;t great news. The tooth he was going to cap needs to come out completely cos it's got a cyct on the root (even though it's dead, so I can't feel it) and the tooth next to it now needs capping. The rest of the work still stands...2 fillings, 2 caps and now an extraction. While he was looking at the xray, he noticed my top front tooth also has a cyst attatched to the root. It's not an immediate job cos I'm in no pain so he said it was my choice to have it done cos it's a surgical operation where he'll have to refer me to the hospital. So I'm knocking that on the head for the time being.

Well that is that and despite me having to have all that work done, thats not what is pissing me off. What IS annoying me is the bill! £900!! YES £900!!! What a joke. Thats for everything including the anesthetists fee and the xrays (but I could never have it done if I was lucid so I gotta pay for sedation)
The fact is, I can't get a sniff of help with the cost cos I'm working full time. If I wasn't I could do. If I was shacked up in a council flat with a couple of kids in tow claiming every benefit under the sun, I'd have it done no problem and walk away with money still in my pocket. It just makes me so angry that just because you want to make the most of your life, you get penalised by the state.

Rant over!!
