Yesterday while chewing my food during my dinner, suddenly I felt there was a stoney thing in my mouth and it irritated me. I admit that I am a fast eater and I swallow fast too...guess what the stoney thing went through my throat and landed in my stomach within just seconds...I am just too fast! I really had no idea what was that thingy! Well, since it is already ended up in my stomach, who cares...this fellow should be out from my body tomorrow if "he" could survive his tour in my stomach...haha.
After dinner, I sat in front of my laptop continued with my unfinish work...and out of sudden, another stoney thing in my mouth. It was so hard as I was trying to bite it...Oh no, when I took that thingy out of my mouth, I realized that it wasn't the normal stone...it was the filing from one of my tooth...oh no! The stoney thingy that ended up in my stomach must be from the same tooth.
And I could feel a real big hole for one of the upper tooth! No, no, no! Oh no, nightmare for me that I have to visit dentist! I hate the feeling of sitting on the dentist chair watching him holding his tools...and even worse the drilling sound...eeee...so eeeery. But I could also recall my last appointment with another dentist who was the one did the filing for this tooth. He said "I am trying to save this tooth, but its condition is not so good already. If this "guy" really turn worst later then we have no choice but to extract it. But for the mean time you could still have him."
Then I was telling myself that I need to visit the nearest dentist the earliest possible on the next day, which is today. Here I am at this clinic near my house, I noticed the doctor is also a surgeon. And I had this feeling that I am going to loose this "guy".
I got myself registered, called in and sat on the dentist chair. "Your tooth is badly infected, and you can't do filing anymore but to extract it." See! I knew it! And the surgeon said: "But this extraction is not a normal extraction as your tooth is way beneath the gum. I have to do a surgery to extract this." What? Surgery? And I started imagining the cutter slicing my gum! Oh no!
But the doctor assured me that I won't have any pain during the surgery. What to do, I have no other option and I said "OK lah". Guess what the doctor told me next..."By the way this is not a normal extraction and it is slightly costly, the charges is RM150 for the surgery." mmm...smart doctor, he must have afraid that I will argue about the price after the surgery. If I refuse to pay and he can't UNDO the surgery...hehe...Whatever he said I agreed as I need to solve this.
And before he starts with the surgery, he ask me to sign a letter that state he will not be liable for any...that arise from the surgery. Cool! Go ahead!
The following 20 minutes were the battling between the surgeon with my infected tooth...the surgeon must have hard time pulling this "guy" out...I could hear some loud funny cracking sound. The doctor must have afraid that I will get fainted halfway hearing the sound, he told me "Don't worry with the noise, everything is fine." mmmm, very comforting! I wasn't scared but just wish this over soon.
Finally the surgeon won the battle and the "patient" survived too! Hehe, otherwise you won't be reading this blog now...:-) I got a few stitches....A FEW STITCHES??? This never happen to me, first time that I received stiches of any kind and I need to return to the clinic to remove the stitches...what a good experience. :-) I brought home big bags of medicine, you name it...painkiller, antibiotic, swollen pil, mouthrinse and cotton.
The surgeon said you cannot go to sleep now, you have to sit straight and bite the cotton for at least 2 hours. Haha, I am not worry of this! I am going to shopping mall after this, looking for a few items for my club's event! So I will have no chance to sleep! What a hyperactive "patient"...haha.
I never expect this on this lovely Sunday. But somehow it has made a memorable Sunday! :-) And now I can't talk properly, so I better shut up!
