[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 576370, member: 3419"] Susie, I'm sending hugs, and a bit of knowledge from one who has actually watched the procedure. (!) Read on if you are interested. If not, skip to the next note. My cousin was in worse shape than you are, but she was in total denial. Not to mention, she's a lot older. We wasted almost 8 mo's, going back and forth to wasted appts, and the dentist and surgeon were very patient but very tired of repeating how you cannot build a house on sand. Finally, after two more teeth fell out, she gave in. I asked to watch (I'm weird; I like those sorts of TV shows, too) and the surgeon let me watch the front teeth being pulled. It was so easy and fast! I was amazed. He made me leave when he got to the back teeth. Insurance and lawyers and all that. Anyway, my cousin woke up and walked to the bathroom, immediately yanked out the gauze, and started a Dracula imitation! Which is to say, yes, she's a former actress, but more than that, t[I]he drugs did a great job and she was ready to go out to lunch. ([/I]No, I didn't take her to lunch!) Please don't be anxious. You are brave and it will turn out fine. I'm so sorry for the Vit D deficiency and bone loss and the extended issues you have had, but I am so glad that you are on the same page with the doctor. That is so important. I'm sending strength and patience. And healing vibes, too. [/QUOTE]
