Dental Issue ............ Grrrrrrr

My bloody abscess came back over the weekend and my dentist is not keen to touch it due to chemo - its never easy is it!
Got more anti-biotics - spent 4 hours at the hospital emergency dentist yesterday - oh wot joy! and gotta go back today to have the tooth removed this morning and more IV anti-biotics.
Also have an appt with Claire (transplant nurse) gotta drop off a 24 urine sample - wow I get to do some great stuff!! and Rachael (dietician) this afternoon - ummmmmm hair loss and tooth removal well that wont do the weight issue any good will it, better wear some heavy clothes lol.

I have had one or two strange looks wandering round with my bandanna's on - people who know me but not too well don't know about the treatment I have opted to go through have looked and kinda smiled oddly - almost sympathetically, haven't noticed anyone purposely avoiding me yet - thinking the worse and that I have cancer, its kinda a strange situation but I am sure it will happen, I suppose its an obvious assumption but still kinda strange.

My friends on the other hand have been great - shouts of 'Oi Tuffy' and 'oooh that reminds me I haven't had a boiled egg for ages' and various other things - they are all digging out their kids fuzzy felts to make me some eyebrows for when they fall out lol oh and just to clarify so far the ONLY place my hair has not started to fall out is my ............................... ARMS!
I know you are all dying to ask lol - but hey got another week of some serious chemo to come so suppose it will all go then.
Love to all
