Ciela especially. Once she saw the massage table being set up Tuesday, she sat at the top of the stairs patiently waiting. I did have to cancel my massage last week because of my root canal. Once the sheet was down she jumped up onto the table from the recliner on the far left. Ciela lay as still as she could be as Katia gave her some attention. when her &#8221; treatment &#8221; was over Ciela jumped up and ran all over like a whirling dervish.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Colin:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>~last week he stepped on a rock helping the girls out of a rocky wavy area in the ocean. He had a small cut \u00a0on the one foot, which between us we thought we had addressed. Then the pain stopped but started again ( rather aggressively ) last Sunday. So Monday morning before we went into Mazatlan, he went to the local Isla doctor. She confirmed that it was inflamed and then gave him three different meds and a lidocaine gel. Of course he is supposed to be off his feet for several days but this is almost impossible. However he really is trying and if he doesn&#8217;t pull his full weight down on the affected area then the pain is tolerable.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4068\" style=\"width: 740px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/contessajewall.com\/index.php\/2023\/12\/06\/updates\/img_6447\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-4068\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4068\" class=\"size-large wp-image-4068\" src=\"https:\/\/contessajewall.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_6447-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"730\" height=\"973\" srcset=\"https:\/\/contessajewall.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_6447-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/contessajewall.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_6447-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/contessajewall.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_6447-113x150.jpg 113w, https:\/\/contessajewall.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_6447-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/contessajewall.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_6447-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/contessajewall.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_6447-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-4068\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Carlie was more cautious and would not lie down and relax.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Contessa:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>~I saw Dr Paty ( the dentist ) Monday about noonish. As my pain remained at the same high level I completed the antibiotics and the anti inflammatories plus the self prescribed heavy duty pain killers. I was tired of constant pain, it wore me right out. Dr Paty was not happy that I was taking so much medication but I stood my ground. She had received the X-rays from the root canal specialist and she said that it was a perfect root canal and that there was no infection. There was no reason for me to have pain. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Other than the fact<\/em>\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>that a perfectly healthy live root was cut from a live healthy ligament\u00a0\ud83d\ude25\u00a0 She said that it can takes weeks to heal. Again I stood my ground saying that I have had several root canals over the years with no further pain. She was concerned about my medication intake. I told her that I could not live without the meds re the pain. I mentioned that the temporary filling had not been levelled and could that be a part of the pain? She did another ( normal looking ) X-ray. The she did the graphite paper test to check high points on that filling. Yes the filling actually was high.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4071\" style=\"width: 740px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/contessajewall.com\/index.php\/2023\/12\/06\/updates\/img_6414\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-4071\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4071\" class=\"size-large wp-image-4071\" src=\"https:\/\/contessajewall.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_6414-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"730\" height=\"548\" srcset=\"https:\/\/contessajewall.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_6414-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/contessajewall.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_6414-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/contessajewall.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_6414-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/contessajewall.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_6414-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/contessajewall.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_6414-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/contessajewall.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_6414-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/contessajewall.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_6414-285x215.jpg 285w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-4071\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Colin managed to get photos of the sunset.

My body was\/ still is worn out.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>~so she filled it down and almost immediately I felt strange tingling sensations all over my lower right side jaw, even between my upper lip and nose. So strange, this went on for over an hour. I surmise that the high filling was being been pushed up by my lower teeth. Thankfully the pain is decreasing.<\/p>\n<p>~so next Monday I see Dr. Paty again and she will remove the temporary filling and redo it, seal the root canals and and she has decided I need a crown as well. 14,000MXN for the crown ( I already paid $5,500.00 ) so a grand total of $1127.00USD or $1534,00CAD.
