So, I had a root canal this afternoon. I have to say that Dental care here in the USA far exceeds that in the UK. I thought that tooth was a goner but the man saved it… I did have to go through pain from Thursday evening to Monday morning though - and that sucks. I have apparently given time for the infection to spread to my jaw bone, so hopefully the antibiotics can get rid of that before I return next Tuesday for the cap. After I got home I looked at the small-print for both sets of pills and the side-effect listed on one of “death” made me laugh. Now that’s hardly a side-effect, is it?

The really cool thing is that the town name where my dentist is, is “Justice.” It’s so cool…

Oh and I’d also like to thank Aetna Health Insurance for covering 100% of the Root Canal and for knocking $128 off the pills.
