I used to do this while showering, it def makes your mouth feel really nice and clean after you get in the routine, but it was hard to maintain.

Also, dont spit the oil down the drain!

I've had 2 teeth disintegrate on me over the years. The first one was fixed and capped by an Army dentist, then the one after that was pulled by a dentist in the county lock-up while I was there. I'd use hydrogen peroxide to keep them free from infection, but that only works to stave it off for a while and doesn't really help the problem. I was also getting migraines from the latter one, so pulling it made those go away too. Recently the one cap has fallen out after 30 years, so now I'm back to trying to keep it from getting infected.

I know the feeling and it does suck huge ding dongs.

Well. Now we know how you got the infections as well as how you passed the time in the army and in lock-up

lock-up with your c ock up

Don't be jealous.

Well I never get a ****ing break

That's terrible. I hope you get one.

Health update:

I feel bad. Head’s cracking. Throat’s burning. Odd one: my knees hurt really bad.

For anxiety you should try (if you're open to trying additional supplements) L-theanine and rhodiola rosea. L-theanine would be the cheaper option. Plus it helps with sleep.

The specialist says I have a hiatal hernia and arthritis causing chest pain. 6 months later they’ll take another look at my lung spot to see if it’s growing. Neither the spot nor a bad heart was causing the pain. I said I thought I probably had covid when they told me I had bronchitis and he said it’s possible. He asked if I got tested and I said no and he seemed ambivalent about getting tested. He said he’s been working like crazy in the ICU because it’s been spreading like nuts around here. He said the chances of covid killing me were super small but I said well damn I had pneumonia before I don’t want to do that again live or die and he said at my age and how my innards look it progressing to that is unlikely. I’m still scared of covid but he said assuming you have and panicking every time your chest hurts is also really unhealthy. He said my chest is going to hurt for other reasons.

He said I may need a gastroenterologist but he’s got a new script for me that might help. He said give it a few weeks. I guess the hernia isn’t going anywhere

Growing old.

Reminds me of that Louis CK bit where he gets old enough so that the doctor dropped all pretenses of worrying over any little thing and is just like yeah your body sucks now but what are you gonna do?
