Dull Ache Monday
Today has been quite the day. Work was pretty crazy, with all sorts of things breaking, the biggest of which was our mail server being inundated with spam connections. We really didn’t solve the problem, but at least it went away after awhile. This is the second time its happened in a week, so we’ve stepped up some of our plans and hopefully we’ll be able to stop some of these guys. Oh how I hate spammers.
I also went to the dentist and the eye doctor today. I went to the dentist for two reasons. Number 1 was to get fitted for a mouth guard that I can wear at night to prevent me from clenching my teeth, which should hopefully help the TMJ problems I’ve been having. My jaw will pop every now and then while I’m eating, or just randomly, and boy does it hurt. The other reason I went to the dentist was because I was having problems with one of my teeth and anything cold. I’ve had the problem every since they took my wisdom teeth out. It turns out I had two (yes two) cracked fillings which was causing my tooth to be sensitive. He fixed both fillings, but as you can imagine I wasn’t expecting to have any actual work done, and needless to say my teeth have ached since then. It’s good though, because hopefully in a few days I’ll be able to eat normally again, without having to worry about what side I chew on or how I swallow things.
My trip to the eye doctor was also eventful, as she looked at my eye and told me everything looked OK. She says it’s still weak, and thus suceptible to being injured again, but she didn’t see any damage from my relapse on Friday. She also gave me some eye drops to use during the day, as well as an ointment to use at night. She says it could take up to 6 months to fully heal to where I won’t have any problems anymore, and I’ll probably need to use the ointment for most of that. I’m fine with whatever as long as I don’t tear the tissue in my eye again. It’s not fun, don’t do it.
I’m also rather sore from Volleyball yesterday, so my whole body hurt today as well. I guess that’s what I get for going on hiatus for so long. I guess I’ll just have to play more often. :)
