Hey guys!! What's up? How ya doing? I am doing okay. I think. Just got up from a nap a little bit ago. Feeling a little anxious. Went back to the dentist today about that piece of bone that I have been trying to get outta there for two days. He says, it's a normal part of my inner gum. That it doesn't come out!! I'm like well, damn. My OCD says it is supposed to come out. I have rubbed my tongue raw trying to get it out LOL. So, now I gotta leave it alone? Are you nuts?? Or maybe I am the one that's nuts. SIGH. I am gonna have to go through this deal and get extra meds to take when I go to the dentist. Sheesh!! Hope you are all doing okay. I think of you often. Have a wonderful evening!!

Smooches,
Chelle

I'm sitting here listening to the rain. The heatwave finally broke and then came the rain.

So peaceful...I love it :)

I never heard that toast was called soldiers. Cool!! The word toast makes it sound very bland, huh?

Hey ZB, relaxing watching the Tigers / Whitesox game. Mentally preparing for a busy week, already a day behind.

Hi Chelle, and everyone else. Wow, that is the shits about your mouth. I know if there is anything wrong with my teeth or mouth, I can't stop my tongue from playing with it. You are going to have a rough time of it.

As for me, I had a pdoc appointment today and was declared stable. Well, as stable as I've ever been. It's kind of exciting to be so dull. And I found out this afternoon that I get to start my new job tomorrow! I bet in a week after I start my job I won't be as stable anymore.

Hey Zany, have you thought of finding another dentist? This one sounds like a quack. You shouldn't have to deal with bone sticking out of your gum, if I'm understanding you correctly. Second opinions are never a bad idea. As for me now, I just got done with dinner. About to look up elevated creatinine levels. Mine have been elevated, not a lot but noteworthy, for months now. I wonder what causes that? If anyone knows, your advice would be much appreciated. Just an add on. I worry cause my doc today said if it gets bad it could lead to kidney failure. About to google it.

if you take a lot of Ibuprofen that can elevate the creatinine levels.
