Guest guest Posted February 23, 2008 Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 thanks my friend. I go back Monday to the dentist for a cleaning, {if I can handle one that is} so I will keep on top of things. Tommy Boy is better today as far as not as feverish, but not eating still. Since it is a virus they can only give immune booster shots unfortunately. I am just thankful he is not worse and it was not as serious as it could be.

Is there anything that you can keep him on all the time on a low-dose that might help prevent these spells? I'm sorry some of the packing came out! I had one tooth go bad years and years ago (not a dry socket but exposed nerves after a cleaning). Anyway, I suffered until that Monday until I nearly blacked out while driving because the pain was so bad, made it to my mom's house and laid there with a cold pack until the dentist opened up. I ended up having 9 shots to deaden the area and an emergency root canal. So please please make sure you take care of yourself and go back on Monday!!!!! (((Hugs)))) Darlene > > Well now that I finally have a minute I will update you on Tommy Boy. He has a herpes type virus. A reoccurance of the same virus he had when he was younger. Probably got it when he was a feral cat. I adopted him at age 1. It can keep coming back as there is not a cure for it. They gave him fluids, an aspirin, antibiotic shot and an immune booster shot. Just have to watch him and if he gets worse they will prescribe antibiotics. Otherwise he wil be fine. He had a fevr of 105, which is quite high and was a bit dehydrated. They ran blood work, all good there. Checked him for worms, and that was negative. Oh and the big guy weighs 12.5 LBS, lol. Should have saw him in the purse carrier. He was so cute and a good boy on the ride. Kept eating the treats they had, lol. This is a relief off my mind. > Had to go shopping first thing this morning and put all that away. Now I am exhausted, but still have 's dr appt at 3pm to do. Gonna rest up a bit now. > Some of my socket packing came out too, darn it. Not all, so I think it will be ok till monday. Not as much pain there, just my jaw. > Hope everyone is having a good day. > Hugs, > > > > > Quote of the Day > " Don't let other people tell you what you want.

That will allow you to hopefully find a good rheum, start some sort of fibro meds/therapy and gain some relief! Plus, that SSI process is a pita - my attorney and I are now waiting on a hearing date, anywhere from 12-15 months from now, although my chances have increased exponentially since I started as I have added fibro, COPD, congestive heart failure and vascular blockages, as well as my asthma and diabetes. You know we're just a " click " away in cyberspace and once you get settled, you should check to see who else is in your region who may have recommendations on docs, etc. (((Hugs))) Hope you feel better soon!
