Ack! Surgery on Tuesday, abscesses tooth today!

[LibrarianBecky 91]

Woke up this morning with a massive toothache. I can tell I have an abscess (underneath a tooth that I had root canaled last year). I had some antibiotics leftover from something recent (dr told me to discontinue--I didn't just stop taking). I've managed to draw out some of the infection, and the pain is bearable right now. I'm going to call surgeons office in the morning. They won't cancel my surgery because of this, though, will they? Anyone have experience with something similar?

I don't know about them cancelling your surgery, but I feel for you... toothaches are the worst!

Good luck! Hopefully they can get the infection under control quickly!
