I had a really rough night - yet another stomach upset, which may (or may not) be a bug that’s going round. It came on in the night, but at least this time I got out of bed and my sheets survived without being pooed. So there was that. I am not playing DnD today as I just can’t manage to think that much.

Cats

I took Opal to the vet on Tuesday because she’s chewing the fur in front of her tail and on her left back paw. They have prescribed Metacam, some more Gabapentin and a capsule called Cystaid. I told her she was a very expensive hobby - it cost over £150, not including the taxi fare there and back.

Teeth

I’m going to have to cancel tomorrow’s dentist appointment because I don’t know the cause of this bug, and I don’t want to give it to the dentist.

I first posted...

You remember I had a dentist?

No longer - they won’t treat me at my current weight. The chairs they have aren’t good enough.

I’m being referred to the “community” dental team, a process which might take a year. Or more.

Seriously, I could bite, I’m so annoyed.

Then...

More on dental care: checking out the website for my local health board, anyone over 25st (yes, that would be me, no you may not comment on my weight) should be referred to the community dentists. Why they didn't just say that, I don't know. So the question is how long the community dentists will take to offer me an appointment.

Why a fat person's teeth should be different to anyone else's, I leave as a question to be considered.

I'm just doomed, I think.

I went to the dentist today to have a clean and two fillings done, in that order. So it happened (much with the ouch, I'd rather have the fillings than the clean, on the whole) and I was safely on my way home, when a bit fell off one of the fillings.

I've called the dentist and will have to go back on Friday to get him to fix it.

The Classic FM is to calm me down. My dentist is a very nice man, but I don't want to get to know him any better than I do now.

Project: Dentist III went off well and I arrived on time and saw him. He ran late, but that's the nature of medical people.

Project: Dentist IV takes place on August 4th, where we have the hygienist and also two fillings, one rather large.

This dentist thing is not a cheap hobby. He said that NHS fillings last between four and six years. I didn't tell him that some of my NHS fillings have lasted 20+ years and are still going strong.
