THE CONTINUING NIGHTMARE

I went to my doc yesterday , and while he gave me pain meds and antibiotics he also made a very strange look when he looked at the hole in my mouth and sent me to a dentist friend of his who fit me in this morning.I am very much dentist phobic and I'm pleased to say he is a very cool guy.
He said he could remove the tooth in about 30 seconds , but the infection is so bad (and he's going out of town and doesn't want to leave me in a lurch in case something bad happens) he gave me a stronger antibiotic that specifically targets the kind of infection I have and referred me to an oral surgeon on Monday who could "manage the infection".
Hopefully this antibiotic will do the trick.
