i've never broken any bones which is amazing since i'm klutz #1
about 10 years ago i had a filling fall out. i put off making a dentist appt. for about a week. one side of my face started to swell up and hurt really bad. i went to the emergency room and they gave me a shot of antibiotics and some pills.that was on a sunday. by wednesday it was still swollen so my DH took me back to the hospital and they hooked me up on antibiotics and morphin for about 3 hrs and send me home. by saturday i was back in the hospital in surgery. they made a cut on the bottom of my jawbone to drain the infection. if it would've went in the bloodstream and hit the brain that would've been the end. i lost 12 pounds in 2 weeks since all i could eat was whatever i could suck through a straw.
