Watch out for dentists...........

[clublights]

No no this is not a rant about what was on TV the other day .. it's what happened to me this week !

Thursday - got a molar taken out at CU school of dentistry
Friday- was tired .. bit more then normal for a tooth pull ( I've had a couple pulled )
Saturday- still pretty tired and was starting to have a sore hard to open jaw..... figured it was just delayed swelling...
Sunday- got real bad could hardly open jaw.. major swelling..
Monday ( 2am) in to the ER I go was starting to have a hard time breathing swollen up like a beach ball on the left side of my face( same side I got the tooth pulled on)
I was at 50%+ obstructed airway at one point... Blood Oxygen saturation was down to 70% at one point too so into the ICU I went major doses of antibiotics and steroids to get me back to normal!

was there till tuesday evening.. then off to a normal room and they just kicked me lose an hour ago


Moral of the story?

make sure you get and take antibiotics when you get a tooth pulled!!!! ( I was offered none and never had before so I thought nothing of it.. I will next time tell ya that!)

How was your week ?
