Title: Absence
Post by: DMOE on February 12, 2008, 02:53:53 PM: As some of you may have noticed and likely many did not... :)

I've not been around much recently.

I have a broken wisdom tooth I am waiting to have extracted and am on a large amount of painkillers that include Codine...

Codine, to put it bluntly gets me stoned in a very nasty way and as such the energy and inclination to do anything other than stare at the TV of an evening is simply not there.

If anyone wishes to purchase scrolls off Muireann or needs Muireann/Ireth for anything, please PM me and I will to what I can in my more lucid moments.

Thinking of having mine done this summer, now that I just got my dental coverage straightened out. Then I'll spend the next couple days in a star trek ds9 marathon on the couch and zone out to Quark's mad schemes.

Not actually had it extracted yet lonnarin......They think they might be able to do that at the end of April......

The painkillers are to allow me to function day to day till then.....

I don't drink full stop on Codine.....The Codine itself is nasty enough

And no LordCove.....I'm having it pulled at the hospital.....so yes, a Doctor :)

Post by: Nehetsrev on February 12, 2008, 06:14:18 PM: Well...technically, Dentists are Doctors of Dentistry. ;)

But, regardless, I hope they do a good job for you DMOE.

Post by: lonnarin on February 12, 2008, 07:11:30 PM: Egads, they make you wait for 2 months before the procedure and hook you on an expensive painkiller well known for its addictive properties till then? That's truly Lawful Evil.

Post by: Pibemanden on February 12, 2008, 07:48:08 PM: End of april...*Shakes his head*I am sorry to hear that I really hope they will get it done sooner.. But well probably not happening so I hope the opperation will go fine once they will get it done

I was referred for an extraction by my dentist at the beginning of December...Today was the earliest the hospital could see me...I've already been taking the Codine for a month.

Thankfully my meds are free.

And yes....our 'free' health service is LE

Title: Re: Absence
Post by: Chazzler on February 14, 2008, 11:39:20 AM: I'm so glad all my 4 wisdom teeth have been pulled out already, the pain was.. yeah, bad.

And I can't resist this, harharhar! "I am sorry miss, but we will need to amputate your jaw due to the nature of this.. situation" :p

In other words, I wish for you a time sooner than that which is 2 months from now, and a quick recovery from after that. Take care :)

Post by: DMOE on February 18, 2008, 11:36:18 AM: Ok....so got my appointment date for the extraction....

Not brilliant but better than it could have been and trust me, it can't come fast enough! :)

Post by: Stephen_Zuckerman on February 18, 2008, 02:10:48 PM: That codeine will certainly help you pass the time... That stuff's serious! And you won't even be able to start weaning yourself off of it for at least two weeks after the operation.

Yikes.

Post by: orth on February 18, 2008, 04:37:50 PM: Erk two months to wait, but yeah I suppose it could be worse...

If it's any consolation, look how happy I was after mine! OneST8 took this shot the moment I awoke from my wisdom teeth extraction. Yeah I was feeling as dopey as I look.
