After the extraction of
my teeth last Wednesday 29/4, there was still pain on my gum and my
right cheek was swollen. Before the extraction, Dr. Edric told me if the
pain continues after 3 days, he asked me to come back. I called up for an and
they gave me an appointment on Monday 4/5
When Janice dropped at
the lobby that morning, some people were queuing up to take
their temperature before going into the hospital. Staff at the lobby
wheeled me up to the dental department. There were more patients' on that day waiting
at the reception area.
I waited more than half
an hour before the nurse. Again, I didn't know what to expect. When Dr. Edric
checked my teeth, another tooth had a small pulse which causes the
pain and swelling. He told me it must be extracted too, but have to take an
x-ray before carrying on.
Before I went for an
x-ray, he gave me an injection. Due to it, my nerves attacked me. I wanted to
take my spasm medication but have forgotten I left it in the car. I asked
God to take control of my spasm.
While waiting
for my turn for the x-ray, I went to ease myself. I asked God to help me
while I was in the toilet. I thank HIM for keeping me safe while there.
I waited for sometime
before went into the room, I saw there were more patients', parents with young
children, young adults, and some elderly patients at the counter area. All of
them wearing face masks.
As I was called into the
x-ray room, a lady staff handle me. The room was quite small and narrow,
luckily my small wheelchair was able to maneuver around. It was a slight
difficulty to take the x-ray, but at last, they manage to do so.
The nurse wheeled me
back to the Dr’s. room and he showed me my x-ray. He explained to me a few
teeth had some problems and need to be treated. After that,
he extracted another top left tooth. This time it was easier to
extract.
Due to the fear, the
nerve in my body attacked again me and I felt not good. Thank God, everything
was over that morning. Next Monday I have an appointment again. What will
happen then, only God knows!!
