Geez, I know I'm just a week and a half into this and I know I have even more fun to look forward to, but my mouth is KILLING me already. What's this going to be like in a couple more weeks? I try not to think about that.
Muscled down some steak soup and french bread for dinner tonight. It was darn good but it was a challenge. Just take your time, dip your bread in the soup to get it soggy, and grit your teeth when you chew or swallow. Jello ain't exactly a nutritional giant but is much easier to eat. We're getting to be friends.
Went a new doc today to talk about my LEFT shoulder that's been giving me trouble. And having said that, it's not really my shoulder as much as it is my neck and my left upper arm. Comes and goes but when it's there, it's excruciating. Yeah, I know, I'm sounding pretty wimp-like, but I can't understand why this is all coming together now. The Doctor had a couple of theories on what's going on. Took and X-Ray that was non-conclusive. They're going to schedule an MRI that will rule out any structural things then we'll go from there. I think I'm going to know all the folks at Diagnostic Imaging on a first-name basis here pretty soon.
Sleep was lacking again Monday night. Got in about three hours. Did get to watch a good, old Christopher Walken movie on IFC. I like C.W. Kinda wierd but in the right role, he's good. So much for the wedge pillow and new drugs as miracle cures. I fell asleep in my car at a stoplight this morning on the way to work. Even managed a quick dream before someone honked. Couldn't believe it! I've never done that before and it scared me. I'm going to have to be careful about driving.

I had a root canal last week just to be able to sympathize with you on wanting a mouth transplant. Still...I suspect I was better off then than what you're having to experience now...
Here to soup!
