Did you eat something its objecting to?
well it didn't object when I was going to eat it.....

The only ate 2 freshly boiled, fresh, hard boiled eggs..... but I have suspected for a while that the yolks of hard boiled eggs bother me...although Mrs Wu and copious websites about gastritis say they don't....

I'd listen to your gut on this.

I bet there's one in every state but location might be an issue.
There's one in Iowa City, but I wouldn't go there if they paid me.

Ares went there when he was young for one cavity. "We use this experimental substance here, instead of traditional drilling. It's less traumatic." They put it on the cavity, and all the teeth they thought might get cavities.

Everywhere they put that stuff, his teeth rotted. Then they were ready for surgery! "But don't worry, insurance covers this!" over and over they said...

I got fed up and hunted down someone local to do the surgery. 1 extraction, 2 crowns, and 5 fillings on a five year old.

We never went back, and he never had another cavity.

Ugh. It seems they used an experimental treatment on Ares. That's an ethical violation at the very least.

As if the kid didn't have enough problems.

What makes it harder is most dentists won't see kids with disabilities, and just refer them back to the school.
Yeah, that sucks. You are living in the wrong place to find dentists that know how to work on kids like Ares.

I'm living in the wrong place for that, for children's mental health care, for adult's general health care, for finding religious community(non Abrahamic)...

I am simply living in the wrong place.

I wonder if we have any dental schools around here.
We have one, but they don't take any/all requesting patients. They only accept what fits the curriculum and it can be a long, drawn-out process. My eldest was accepted for a partial, and it took months. He was surprised when he had to go the traditional route to get a replacement--only two visits and done.

It was on fire when I laid down on it.
And I desperately need a good heavy frost! The ragweed is killing me this year and it looks like we'll start November around 80°.:disappointed:
We are dropping to a high in the 50s on November 1! I am super excited if I can make it till then. It's in the upper 70s for highs till then, though it is supposed to rain tomorrow night.

Sadly, yes, you are. The only mitigating factor is that you have the internet. It would be a LOT worse without being able to at least reach out remotely.
