::Dental Check-Up

Tuesday, June 26, 2007

I woke up late this morning with a terrible headache. Today's my scheduled dental appointment and I was worried I won't make it.

Randy's already online when I logged on in the Unification Wars game. Our fedmates encouraged me to take rest but I have to reset my DP before going to my late afternoon appointment. Everything went smoothly in the game untl we had power outage. I called Randy to go to bed in case I won't be able to login back in the game.

Power was restored at 2:45 pm but Randy went offline already. So, Tintin and I left to see Dra. Meng chavez, Unit 2503 Medical Plaza, Ortigas Center. After long story-telling about my lovelife, she explained to me that I had infection and my molar tooth needs biological extraction to avoid further complications. The said infection can lower my immune system defense and can cause heart problems.

She suggested two treatment plans, whichever is more convenient for me after the extraction: Lower Bilateral Denture (Plan A, Php 20,700.00) or Implant / Implant Crowns (Plan B, US$ 3,450 + Php 75,900.00). Knowing that I had a nice figure before, she advised me to refrain from eating rice since I have gained so much weight since the last she saw me. I also mentioned to her that I stopped taking antibiotics Dra. Rosette prescribed to me because I itched a lot and I even had skin allergy again.

Before extracting my molar tooth, she asked me to submit the following blood tests by fax or email: FBS, complete CBS, Bleeding & Clotting Times. Fasting from 12 midnight before blood test should be observed.

I mentioned to her also about my unknown illness last year. So. Dra. Chavez recommends me to check online QUANTUM Electro Physiological Frequency Xrroid EPFX - SCIO and if I liked it, she could give me 'Biofeedback solutions for stress' sessions. The first session would cost me higher than the succeeding sessions and I am not sure if I am ready for these expenses.

Meng told me that our dear friend, Madam Olie, passed away last April this year due to Diabetes complications. I feel guilty for not seeing her for the last time. Wherever she is right now, may her soul rests in peace. Randy and I will include her in our prayers.

Meanwhile, my family dentist/best friend will stay here in Manila until last week of September, before going back to Canada. I hope Randy will meet her on his next visit.
