Ouch

Last week I drove from Provo to Portland to visit my son. I took my time staying overnight in Bosie. I left Provo on Sunday and arrived in Portland Monday around rush hour. I drove through very heavy rain the last hour in the gorge. Was sure tired of the rain when I got to my son’s house. Tuesday was a good day, however on Wednesday my upper right molar started hurting me. I took Ibuprofen to ease the pain. Friday I started the drive back to Provo taking Ibuprofen at each rest stop and taking a short nap. I did the same Saturday. It rained and snowed off and on all day. I looked like a chipmunk with the infection in my upper jaw. I got setup with a Dentist on Monday morning and was sent over to an Endodontist and by Monday afternoon I got a root canal on my molar through a cap I had on that tooth. And a prescription for an antibiotic for the infection. I’ve got the infection under control now with just a couple of days left on the antibiotics but the upper jaw still hurts some from the root canal. Hopefully the pain will be gone by Thanksgiving day.
