I am probably very little help my go to for pulled teeth was always
either puddings. Or heehee milk shakes without straws.

And eggs, but scrambled or boiled and then cut to small pieces with
butter.

Thanks everyone! I appreciate the love and well wishes and suggestions.

Lara- I DO have an ice pack for my teeth. I have used that most times and it really helps.

Sorry I couldn't get on sooner. Yesterday I graduated to eating ground chicken patties, so I'm almost back to well. I'm also tapering off the pain pills. Longest I went was a bit over 12 hours last night. Problem though-I'm losing track of when I took what. Ooops!
I think I'm pretty close to accurate though. Gotta take my antibiotics and some regular meds and vitamins here in another 15 minutes or so (after lunch...er my second lunch).

The worst of the period pain hasn't come yet. At this point, I'm not sure if I want to still be on my pain pills for the tooth for that or back to my regular pain pills. Thanks again for the well wishes. They really do help! :grouphug:

Hopefully I'll be back to "normal" here shortly.

did you have all 4 pulled at the same time?
Glad that you are healing!

Yes, all four. And im healing but i have a gum flap now. Basically its a fristration trying to keep food out of it. If it doesnt go away in a week, i need to get back in touch with the doctor.

Anyway, im suddenly wondering if im getting hypomanic. See earlier tonight i was all gungho about getting into my writing again, and these last few days I've been catching up with another forum. Hmm. Like i seem to think i can do it all, but we know i can't. It's just exhausting tho, what H expects of me is a fulltime job. Today was the first day i started feeling myself again and we worked the whole day almost! I guess i did sneak in some time for things. Maybe i can try the management better this go around.

Oh next therapy got cancelled cuz there was a death. But i have psychiatrist appointment still. I was just refilling my meds and vitamins. Think im good for awhile now, but she supplies me with the vraylar cuz insurance won't cover it.

But yeah, am i hypo i wonder or is it just because my period and being out with the teeth stuff has me wanting and needing to play catchup? Or both? Hmm

Sorry im missing other posts. Ill try catching up tomorrow

Feel better soon!
As bizi's Mum used to always say (and may still say it) "you've got a lot on your plate". Sometimes we just can't do it all...

Gee

It sounds more like you might just be feeling a little like you can
take on the world now. So try to do as much as you can. But also
take it easy.

Donna

try to find some balance if you are able to.
perhaps you need to talk to your hubby about what a balanced life would look. Perhaps he is expecting too much from.maybe you could get a daily planner and schedule things in your planner. scheduling me time or time for exercise. That is a natural way to have an anti depressant.Studies show it works better than a pill. now if we could all just go tot he gym or simply walk around your neighborhood, if you feel safe about doing that.

Im wondering if yesterday was just a blip of optimism, because today im struggling to get out of bed. Or maybe i just needed my coffee? I dont know. My mind is so like cloudy. It seems like i have one major thing to do and cant think about anything else...except all i do is think and overthink. Seems like when i start to think i just remember the other things i should be doing and i get overwhelmed. I get overwhelmed with the idea of lists and journals too. Seems like too much effort to pull out my notebook anymore. Days seem to pass by so fast!

I was gonna say something else but already forgot it. Sigh

sounds like you could use a hug.
(((((((((HUG))))))))
