Day 6:

The nausea returned again in morning. I took 2 Gravol Ginger tablets. I'm going to be so happy when I have no more nausea daily & able to eat without taking Gravol first. I'm trying to remain in good spirits. It's difficult when I don't feel well & am nauseous daily. I can't help but feel upset sometimes...it passes..when the nausea stops.

Day 5, dinner:

2 soft boiled eggs - finely minced.
Broccoli & cauliflower, beef broth congee(no pic, will update later)
Buttered mashed potatoes with gravy.
Orange electrolytes drink (no pic)

Cat nurse is very steadfast in support 💗 Asher knows I'm quite unwell atm & sticking close.

Delayed update from yesterday because I passed out early evening.

Day 4: Gums recovery & adjusting to immediate dentures.

Dinner:
Steamed taro - I ate a full one & scraped softest parts from the other 2 pieces.
Baby Gourmet veggie beef & barley pureed soup.
Oikos blueberry yogurt.
1 pint of sweetened soy milk.

Day 5:
I'm not putting either upper or lower dentures back in for awhile today. May try putting back in, later in afternoon.

Very early this morning, had fresh ginger & honey drinks to calm my hella nauseous tummy. I did try puking but only dry heaved; leaving me feeling dizzy & shaky. I waited for my body to stop shaking. Then, slowly drank a chocolate Ensure nutritional supplement drink - it stayed down👍 I slept more.

Got up again, few minutes ago. I had my first poop since Friday & it made me feel bit better - only been able to poop 3 times since Wednesday's dental extractions & 1st day of immediate dentures put in. I did my saltwater & antiseptic oral rinses. Now, having mug of warm fermented salted lime & honey drink. Will attempt to eat some ramen noodle soup soon. No nausea atm & hoping it does not return today. I'm VERY hungry & need a lot more nourishment.

Day 3. Gums recovery & getting used to immediate dentures.

Lunch today:
Bowl of beef broth rice #congee & smooshed boiled #eggs.
Two, 100g blueberry #yogurts.
1L #StrawberryMilk.

Enjoyed my yogurts outdoors, while listening to juncos & house sparrows singing 😀

Additional antibiotics are being picked up right now. I'm using Colgate #Peroxyl #antiseptic #mouthwash to help my gums to heal & to help prevent getting too many mouth sores. I rinse with that, after gentle warm water mouth swirling rinse.

I'm supposed to take my immediates out tonight to clean them; put back in the morning. I'm going to wait til late evening to remove for the night. I want to keep them in for longer to help my gums to heal better & to not lose shape.

Day 3. Gums & dentures recovery update.

Had to leave voice-mail for my dentist. Woke up in searing pain, on both upper/lower on right side of mouth. The swelling in that area went up hella fast overnight - spreading past jawline & into my neck for lower area; its closing up right nostril for upper swelling. I'm having problems breathing properly & back to just liquid food this morning because lower swelling has affected my swallowing.

I'm feeling grumpy due to the pain & new difficulties related to fast swelling areas, described above. First mouth sore has developed on upper left side of mouth. I have a special medicated rinse for that👍

I'm happy about my pureed food & liquids this morning. Made by a friend nearby. #IndianFood. Tomato soup & salt lassi. First time having salt lassi - it's a yogurt based drink, with cumin, black salt & mint.

#CatNurse is on the job 💗

Day 2, nighttime gums & dentures recovery update.

Denturist wants me to leave my immediate dentures in for tonight & tomorrow night. Just do antiseptic mouthwash rinses 3 times daily. Then, start practicing removing, washing & putting dentures back in after meals, on day 4.

Got a good 5 hours of sleep before waking up with a lot of jawbone & canine gums pain. I had to take 1.5 dose of T3 to quell it. I put more ice chips in mouth & wrapped flexible icepack on face, to feel more relief.
I'm having some nutritious Indian dal soup - lentils based & savoury. Having a chocolate Ensure nutritional supplement drink too.
Going back to sleep again, after eating, washing up & wrapping a new icepack around my face.

My lunch for day 2 of gums recovery.

#MisoSoup with lots of soft #tofu added. I removed the seaweed & onions after making the broth. Those stick to the top of my dentures & it's easier to eat without them in the soup.
Pork bones broth based congee.
Blueberries, kiwi, spinach & almond smoothie (not pictured because I drank it already).
