THANK GOODNESS!!
The IV antibiotics work very quickly because they bypass the digestive tract and get into the blood stream immediately. She should begin to notice a decrease in the pain within a few hours......... but the swelling may or may not subside a whole lot which is normal because there is still inflammation there. Very good that she is seeing the oral surgeon on monday!!
I am SO glad that you posted here and I saw your message. I don't have any plans on traveling to Montana, but if I ever do, I'll let you know beforehand!!
Please continue to keep us posted on how she is doing.......

So, one more time and I can't say it enough, THANK YOU for your help. Your insight was invaluable today. If you're ever in Montana, let me know. We at least owe you a nice dinner! : )
