@Gingerlily @izzeyb Thanks It feels like i have had tooth trouble since i retired in feb, They keep putting me on antibiotics then because they cant fit me in for extraction ( as so booked up ) the infection comes back and they cant extract. He gave me 4 injections , attempted to extract, then said as still infected the injections did not work. So put me on antibiotics for next 7 days and next appoint 25/5 So will most probably be infected again. Fed up will most probably have to go private as feel my poor mouth cant take any more

Brambling, sorry to be a pain, I’ve now lost an extra 1lb, so 7lb total this quarter. I keep weighing myself at random times 2-3x a week rather than sticking to a set day 😄
