Sick mummy =(

Today is an extremely bad day for mummy....in fact should i say this "suay-ness" was with mummy since last week...

Wonder what luck falls upon mummy...she actually cracked her tooth while she was having dinner last week. The pain stayed with her since then...She went to the dentist last Friday and the dentist told her..."Its an almost unfortunate thing this has happened" then he proceeded to explain to mummy what happened....in fact mummy's tooth cracked with her nerve still alive inside, causing her to scream in pain when she has meals cos her tooth felt very sensitive at the slightest touch. However the dentist could not do an x-ray on her as she was pregnant, so in order to know the extent of the crack, she had to undergo the root canel treatment which is estimated to be about $860 (mummy estimated will cost over 1k eventually...)...her heart almost dropped when she heard that, as she was thinking how could such a thing have happened during this time...

She has been eating on the left side of her mouth since then, but unfortunately it was very hard for her as food will still naturally go over to that damaged tooth...and it was very painful. She suffered headaches as well, probably cos of the toothache..

Now that her MS has gone, her appetite has increased or back to normal since the start of the pregnancy....how could such unfortunate thing happened when she is back to eating full of joy? She feels very upset at the slightest thought of it....and what makes it worse is she called the gynae office today, the nurse there told her it is not advisable to do the treatment until she has given birth, as it poses a risk since have to do gum injection. This risk...if mummy decides to go ahead with the treatment still, will be something that mummy has to be responsible for. But mummy doesn't want to risk hurting me...as she went through so much in her first trimester just to have me stable inside her womb...so she is contemplating whether she could bear with the pain until she gives birth...

Another alternative will be to ask Dr Heng personally again on Wed when she goes and see her. Ultimately mummy is sure the decision still lies with her. Or wait till i grow bigger in the 3rd trimester then safer for mummy to do the treatment? Root canel is a series of treatment, not just once...imagine undergoing through the injections each time round...Sigh...no idea....

Talking about today is perhaps once of the worst days for mummy...she went to work in the morning....threw up once before she had breakfast, then threw up again after she had the breakfast + vitamins she eats every morning. So gross....She is feeling extremely unwell since two days before (the sore throat pain extended to the point where it affected her sleep...she was woken up by the pain). This morning, she feels feverish and is suffering from a terrible sore throat, headache, stuffed nose, giddiness and a full body ache and pain, not forgetting her tooth pain...she went to the company doctor yesterday and she only prescribed lozenges as there were no other medications that mummy is advised to take as she is pregnant...the doctor mentioned to mummy gotta let her body heal naturally...so meanwhile she is taking panadol and lozenges...

She came back from work in the morning...told her boss she is not feeling well so is taking unpaid leave...she felt dizzy in the cab back home, and rushed to the toilet to throw up again the moment she stepped into the house...lucky daddy was at home (he's oso sick =( ) so he bought lunch for mummy....she has no appetite so she just had fish soup for lunch...

Its now 8.15pm...mummy is still not feeling as good though better than in the afternoon, as her body is still in pain...she has to pop in panadols again before she goes to bed....i hope mummy gets well soon....she confided in a few colleagues that she is feeling very upset and sometimes feel like crying when she thinks of everything that has happened...i hope she cheers up soon too....cheers to a happy mummy...
