I just came back from the dentist. It was $487 for 2 minor cavities. Which didn't seem like minor cavities with how much she was drilling. Luckily she put so much numbing gel on before the novacaine so I didn't feel the large amount of novacaine she shot in me. I didn't feel much pain but I felt a lot of anxiety and semi panic and my boots were shaking a bit. At one point I almost asked them to go get my mom but I knew I'd sound like a weenie if I did that. It took just over an hour to get them done. My mouth is so numb. But what a year its been. One lung inflammation. 3 phelebotomy procedures. One thyroid biopsy. One bout of Covid. And then 2 cavities. Hopefully next year is better health wise. Right now I'm just trying to relax before the novacaine wears off and then the pain starts. Thanksgiving has become sort of a mess so I'm trying not to think about it right now.
