So did you get a balloon?
I know the needle phobia is silly but the darned things still give me the willies. I didn't get to hear the sound of drilling this go round because they were extracting instead of filling. - But there was a lot of crunchy cracking sounds as he wrestled each tooth out.
Right now I'm not feeling much pain but I popped a Vicodin. I had a few left over from back when I shattered my elbow. If I feel OK after it wears off I won't dread the next visit so much.
