Oh the hideous pain! Yikes - I don't think I'm very brave.

Unfortunately when the dentist took out the last tooth a large piece of gum came with it leaving the bone exposed (where's the puking icon?) So he had to pull the gum down from above and sew it up apparently - have to see him again in September as apparently he doesn't have a clue how he will fix it and I may have to go to hospital for a surgeon to correct it! I don't recall any of this being said but Bev reliably informs me that is what he was saying whilst I was merrily slumped on the sofa in the recovery room!

How how I love that IV sedation lol

Rest of teeth beautifully fixed now - but the throbbing is driving me nuts and I have anti-biotics to take because of the really large hole in my upper gum.

Started down reg for ICSI today too and the last of the pill - which was some consolation as the pill really seemed to be affecting me this time. Just waiting for my period to come now so I can ring the Lister and book my baseline scan.

The embryologist rang on Tuesday when we got back from the dental clinic to talk donor sperm to me - it was really hard to speak but I think I conveyed what I meant to. No blonde donor sperm available at all at the moment so had to go with a light brunette with blue eyes,slim, proven fertility, graduate, sporty and some scarily intelligent past times. Can't really remember what else she said as I was still half out of it!
