What a Time to Need a Root Canal

Being in the high risk category, I wanted to keep away from medical facilities, but the pain was so bad that I had to see the dentist. Now I need a root canal. 😢 There goes my staying away from people.

I know the timing is bad but just make sure wash your hands often. In the meantime I have an appointment on Tuesday which I'm not looking forward to because of the venue.

Good. Better safe than sorry. Some people think it’s nothing because they may not get symptoms, not realizing they could infect someone who is vulnerable , and could actually die. I don’t care if some think I’m eccentric, or overreacting, it’s my life, and that’s what is important to me. @SageWanderer

@Carissimi I agree. My wife is in that vulnerable category so I'm extra careful when I get home. Even the regular flu could be deadly in the right conditions.

Exactly. @SageWanderer

Got to go see a dentist for those check ups. It is better then losing your teeth

I saw the dentist. That’s how I know I need a root canal. I used to see the dentist every six-months, until I lost my dental insurance, 18-months ago. 😞 @smileylovesgaming

@Carissimi Ahh corona ? I understand

I had a similar problem just this week. I had to have a crown done. I was very nervous because I'm planning on hibernating thru the virus scare. I'm high risk too. Go get it done quickly before it's spread more.

Thanks, @Stereoguy. I think I’ll finish my course of antibiotics, and see how much pain I can tolerate. It may be better to go sooner, before the Corona virus has us on lock down. I have to gird my loins to have dental work done. They have asked 2.2 million to work at home in Washington State. I’m not there, but we know it won’t be long until it spreads all over.
