Football cheek

So finally on Monday evening the anaesthetic wore off, and I stopped looking like a stroke patient, but yesterday morning I woke up with a swollen cheek instead. The pain is now bearable, and I'm taking penicillin, but the cheek is still swollen and stiff.

There are other disadvantages too. I can only sleep on my left side or on my back, and I can only chew on the left side.

From all the pills my stomach acts funny, and my body retains water, which means that a few days I feel bloated, and then I spend a whole day doing nothing but peeing.

This better be worth it!

I am feeling much better, however, last time a crack was repaired it only lasted like a year or so. Then I had to have a crown put in. But fingers crossed. Right now I'm feeling ok.
