Lost My Job and Doubting Myself

[Certain Hope]

Yay, Bones!!!     Wow... I am so tickled for you. Another step closer to better days. ((((((((((((Bones))))))))))))

Prayers going up for quick healing and pain-free, restful nights as you get back in the pink!

Love,
Hope

OH you must be relieved. Hang in there. Did they give you pain meds? Do consider taking them... you will be amazed how long it can take for these things to heal completely.

((((((((((Bones))))))))))

Fortunately, I have not needed pain meds yet.  I have a temporary crown right now as we begin the process of making a permanent crown.

BTW, the Bible verse from Isiah helps a lot!

Good good good good good good good!

Hang on to the meds anyway.

There's a little anchoring ligament, or ligaments, and it has to heal to 'set' the tooth securely, and that can take awhile.

I am surprised at how much residual soreness I have now, from a root canal that happened and was painless over a month ago. Definitely not infected, just slow healing for some reason.

My dentist tells me this often happens. Some nights, I take half a pain pill because there's just enough discomfort to keep me awake otherwise.

Hopefully this won't happen to you - it's the first time I've experienced it myself. Anyway, what are experiences for, if not to learn from and use to benefit others? Do post a bit more [lengthwise] if you feel up to it, I'd like to know how you are doing.

(((((((Bones)))))))) it helps me, too. Thanks for saying so.... I appreciate it. I appreciate you, especially.

  Isaiah 54: 4 "Fear not, for you will not be put to shame; And do not feel humiliated, for you will not be disgraced; But you will forget the shame of your youth, And the reproach of your widowhood you will remember no more. 5 "For your husband is your Maker, Whose name is the LORD of hosts; And your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel, Who is called the God of all the earth.

This is so amazing!  I just discovered Is 54:4 this morning during a prayer session for a couple and I wrote it down for myself.  I did not even read verse 5 which is wonderful.  I am not a frequent reader of the bible but I do find verses that help me through dark times and this one really stuck out for me.  Imagine the encouragement when I logged in and found you had posted it here.

I love this place.  I love the way this group of people work together for each other. - your friend - Gaining Strength

   (((((((Gaining Strength))))))))  Check out Isaiah 41: 10-13

I love this place.  I love the way this group of people work together for each other

Me, too. And I love the way all things work together for good.....

Your friend,

Actually, I don't even have any pain meds in the house.  I haven't been to the store to get any more aspirin.  I've been postponing shopping until I have a list of things that I need to make the trip worth the gas.

I just got a phone call from my dentist's office today.  My appointment to have the molding done for my permanent crown had to be rescheduled from tomorrow to next week.  She has to go out of town.  So far, no pain in the tooth.  I still have to be careful about chewing because the temporary keeps catching the inside of my cheek.

I just noticed an interesting phenomenon with my temporary crown today.  It looks like the center of it is eroding away.  I'm wondering if the chemistry within my mouth is interacting with the temp's material and slowly dissolving it.  I'll be keeping an eye on it until my next dental appointment next Thursday.

Still no pain, though?  And do you think maybe you grind your teeth at night?  Maybe that is the cause of the eroding.  It will be so great once this particular situation can be laid to rest.  Maybe you'll feel like a new person on some level once you come back to some kind of normal physical health.  Like a re-awakening.

Hang in there, Bones.

I do tend to grind my teeth in my sleep.  I've done that as long as I can remember.  So far, no pain.  I'm still feeling a bit down today and I'm still trying to hang in there.  Thanks, PP.
