[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 427518, member: 1514"] Tony is furious that the guy did the extraction anyway with the abscess. I expected that when I went in and showed them my paperwork from the ER that they would probably do an Xray to make sure it really was abscessed and not something else and then send me home with orders to complete the antibiotics and come back to pull the tooth/teeth. But no, he did the pulling that day. See, several years ago a dentist did this to Tony's oldest brother Buck and it almost killed him. The infection got into his bloodstream and his throat almost closed up completely. Buck lived alone but his downstairs neighbor noticed that he hadnt seen him for a couple of days since the dentist thing so he went up there banging on the door and he heard him grunting and the guy broke the door down and Buck was almost purple. They had to stick a toothbrush down his throat to keep it open until the paramedics got there and could insert a tube. He literally almost died and it was touch and go in the hospital for a week or more with the blood infection. So needless to say, Tony has been calling me constantly all day. If anything happens to me, I wouldnt want to be that dentist. [/QUOTE]
