One other thing I forgot to ask about. Since this ordeal first started I have noticed that most every day I feel sick to my stomach for a few hours. No other syptoms but I wonder if any of this could be causing this. No pain, just the nausea.

Sometimes they will use a laser to reduce the amount of gum tissue along that margin. If you are going to do that, it should be done soon so that you can clean it better.
I would still get a second opinion on the fit of the bridge. It would be ideal to bring your x-rays with you and let the consulting dentist take an x-ray of that area to see how the bridge is fitting along the margins.
