I've said it a million times..(Abby...I'm sure you've heard me say this) "If I go to the hospital for one thing they'll find other stuff wrong with me." Now, before I get to far ahead of myself this is what happened (and bear with me please if I misstype or spell something wrong...my hands are shaking) .
As I may have mentioned to you...my wisdom tooth has been trying to push it's way through again....causing the molar in front of it that was already chiped and decaying (cavitiy) to abcess. Well I knew it was abcessed (DUH!! any idiot would....It's swollen and I have a godfather type cheek on one side) Well I tried all my home remedies and a couple of Max's crazy idea to help the pain and infection of the absess but everything just seemed to make it worse... So I now know the only way it will get better is with antibiotics.... So after taking the boys to school...I took myself to the hospital yesterday.
When the doctor comes in to see me; he uses a tongue depressor to help him see the absess....which in turn makes me cough. He then wants to hear my lungs and run this test to see how much oxygen is getting into my lungs....mind you I've had this cough for months (I just thought it was a bad smokers cough...with my medical history it's hard to keep track of every ache and pain). Well anyway....turns out I have bronchitis/Pneumonia and an absessed tooth. They gave me two shots of antibiotics in my right ass cheek and 4 new prescriptions. (500 MG Naproxen, 500MG Hydrocodone/APAP, 500 MG Cephalexin , and the nastiest tasting syrup EVER Albuterol....YUCK!!! The meds make my hands shake (just enough so it's noticeable...LOL)
We'll be moving soon. There are currently 2 houses we're looking at both in the brevard county area....I'll post more on that when it happens. Brightest Blessings to all!!!!!!!!
