Nelie,

I've not had a chance to look it up yet. I think I spelled it correctly, trying to read the doctors handwriting is a stretch. I'll pick the prescription up today. I'll let you know what the pharmacist says about it. It's supposed to help with all the fibrosis I have from the radiation.

Brian,

The oral surgeon is in practice with his son who's my dentist. Not sure if he's going to be working on me with his son or not. He didn't make the meeting yesterday because of an emergency that came up. I'm not sure yet what they're going to do about this wisdom tooth. I would venture to say that if it has to come out, that the oral surgeon would do it?

It does feel as though the tooth has receded? It is not causing nearly the discomfort that it was a few weeks ago.
