Lumps n bumps

So not the worse answer you could have been given; in fact its all quite positive.  It's going to be tough but you'll get through it and be enjoying life once recovered.

Good day 

oh well plus point no chemo minus point ouch 8.   Teeth out !  At least the team gave you the positive aim of cure. No point beating round the bush treatment pretty brutal but if I can do it anyone can and I am a wimp ! Best bit of advise I can give us eat as  much  as you can between now and treatment starting ok with teeth being pulled might have to be lots if cream n ice cream. Cream in soup the make it richer is s good tip 

onwards  n upwards

Hi

I was horrified when they told me I needed to have 7 poss 8 teeth out at pre treatment Maxi appt. Prepared myself for that but, in the end only had back 4 out (wisdom teeth really) on the actual extraction day. So perhaps worth a check when you go, in the hope they have scaled the amount for extraction down without compromising anything.

hi hazel,

will keep away from liquorice tea and your husband (lol). get out for a meal this weekend before i make a necklace out of the teeth. whats the going rate for teeth these days from the tooth fairy? marvel and double cream? no ta..

Well Paul, you may surprise yourself at the food you'll be happy to eat while undergoing treatment and during  recovery.  I know I did!

I can tell you these hospital dentists are brilliant at their job. 
I had to have a wisdom tooth out AFTER RT, which I was really pissed about ( osteoradionecrosis and all that)

I expected all sorts of twisting and grinding with nurses holding me down but no! A few lifts with a periostome and it just popped out. Never felt a thing! AND it’s healed excellently. 
Nobody will notice you have teeth missing with your Corona Virus mask on, anyway. 
Keep Smiling.
