An Important Week Starts

I slept well last night, that's two nights in a row and I consider that pretty good. My weight seems to be stablized at 173.6 and I have no complaints with that. This morning I had a cheese and vegetable omlette, I was even able to taste it.

I met with the dentist today and he said he could see where my tongue was sore. He felt it was on the edge of healing but I needed to do some things to help it along. I am to stop using the carafate and am only to use the lidocain three times a day. I am to continue doing the baking soda rinses and am to wear the upper tray at all times except when eating.This is the tray I was supposed to use when applying the fluoride. He gave me a new antibiotic which he refered to as the golden bullet. It will deal with any infections the last antibiotic may have missed. He feels this will take care of the problem. We'll see. Tomorrow is my big day. I meet with Drs. Weber and Beadle and I have my scans.

For lunch today I made some pasta and fixed it with tomato and mushroom sauce and added some of my vegetables. I know if I could have tasted it, it would have been delicious.
