Two days ago I got two little bottles of hand sanitizer, just in case!marilaine wrote:Gail will be 65 this year.Sea Lion Woman wrote:I also think the same ML. I guess it doesn't hurt being extra careful!
How old is your sister?
My friends have taken to using hand sanitizer now. We have two bottles at work.
Good going, Tencha!
~ML
I'm applying it every single second and I'm also washing my hands and I wanna start taking some Tamilflu (or however it's called) or even some Tylenol (I might start taking that because my wisdom tooth is hurting and that helps relieve the pain a little)

I read the same thing...it's getting weaker (In Mexico, stores are gonna open again on thursday I think)grannybear wrote:I'm an optimist. It's not going to be bad.
I keep telling myself because my grandson going to Europe in June and I don't want his trip ruined.
From what I read they think it'll be mild this summer but get bad in the late fall. Phooey.
I'm still carrying my hand sanitizer everywhere because I have to take the bus when I go to school pretty much everyday....and God knows what's in those buses
I know....they are running out of them. Yes, I checkedMarie wrote:It's pretty hard to get Tamiflu right now
but I still have to take some sort of medicine...this wisdom tooth is killing me

Only problem with putting off a visit to the dreaded dentist is that if one or more have to come out - the older you get the harder it is!!! I got mine out at 23 and I was miserable. But my Dentist friend tells me that in older patients they get all kind of problems with impacted teeth and crowding of the teeth due to lack of room. Does not sound like a cavity or it should hurt all the time. A simple x-ray would tell if one needs to be removed.
Glad it's not hurting right now!!
Pain = No Fun!!!!

I asked my mom if she ever had her wisdom tooth removed and she said that my aunt (or someone) had them but, just like me, it hurt and then it stopped, and then it started hurting again. But she never took them out because her dentist said that wisdom tooth (or teeth!) should be removed when they "jeopardize" other tooth (like if they grow in a weird way)
But I'm still gonna go to my dentist...my friend had his FOUR wisdom teeth removed, he was all swollen, and he was taking so many meds, he looked like he was high
Thanks for caring Marie! *hugs*

I had two out on one side then a month later two out on the other side. Mine came out while I was in the military and the military Dentists just hate wisdom teeth - so I got a shot of novacane (no they did not put me out!!) and I got to hear all the cracking and see all the blood (my blood!!!) Thank god today they would put you out and remove them properly if they had to come out. Two of my wisdom teeth were impacted (the roots were intertwined with the root of the tooth next to it) They HAD to be removed - but the other two were removed because my mouth was small and the wisdom teeth were causing crowding and crooked front teeth. I remember looking like a chipmunk on one side after each surgery - but hey - at least I did not have any more problems from those teeth any more!!!

Oh my Marie! You were in the military?! Wow! That's pretty cool! How long were you in?
That sounds like a not very nice experience Marie, but the it was all worth it I guess. Well my wisdom tooth are just coming out (they're very teeny tiny) so I'm guessing it's hurting because of that. They're on each sides of my mouth. Well today they're not hurting anymore so I'm very happy for that (but I'm also stressed out....school work)
