THE CZickness XLVIII....."The Holidays are Coming" edition...

Morning all...

Took a Benadryl to sleep last night and got in a little over 10 hours. Headache is worse today. Whole right side of my head aches and feels like a bruise to the touch. Jaw and cheekbone hurts as well, which is why I thought it was sinus related, but sinus meds didn't help. Even hurts to swallow on my right side. Very odd.

Time to see the doc? Maybe just a sinus infection that needs an antibiotic?

Trying to decide if it's that and I need to see a doc, or something tooth related and I need to see a dentist.

I don't mean to sound like your mother but, "go to the doctor (not so), young man".

 

[wtburnette]

Just trying to decide which to call first. It hurts to chew on the right side as well, but if it's a sinus thing, that could be it, but it's very odd. Never had a sinus issue where it only affected one side.

Unless your insurance affects this, I'd start with a GP. Rather sinius or tooth abscess, you'll get an antibiotic (I am guessing, of course) so might as well see your GP?

Take it from me. Don't wait. I had some pain and ignored it for a long time thinking it was just a wisdom tooth that bothered me (since removed) from time to time. End result was I lost a molar that could have been repaired (had a crack) had I addressed it in a timely manner. The really dumb thing about this is my dentist's office is a block away and he was my neighbor for years and years. I am a little slow....

Sounds like a possible sinus infection. Probably need to see a doctor ASAP. Urgent care if you can’t get in to see your regular doctor.

I'm trying to get enough caffeine in me to counteract the Benadryl I took last night. Will be making a call here soon as this pain is getting almost debilitating.

First I've heard of this. Is this by chance in the same building where Elmore's was located ?

It (according to Google) is called Greenwood Trading Post. I might have to go check it out.

 

[T-DOGG]

Did you do the trigger undercut or was that factory?

Soonest Doc could get me in was tomorrow at 2:30. Might call my Dentist to see if she can get me in this afternoon for X-rays. If so I would be attacking the problems on two fronts.

Morning Everyone!

@T-DOGG Nice job on the new 1911s! Thanks for the write up and info. I saved the Brownell’s link for future reference. The trigger on my Citadel was my first and so far only trigger job attempt. It turned out ok. It needs a new hammer and sear that more closely match mil spec to be great. My goal was a crisp 4lb and I came close. It’s not as crisp “breaking glass” as I hoped but that’s in the Citadel hammer/sear design. Still a good trigger, just not perfect. Maybe some day I’ll put a EGW hammer and sear kit in it and make it 3-3.5lbs. But when I get around to putting time and money in another trigger I think the P-01 will be the priority.

That is a solid plan!

GM everyone.

Its 55 in St. Louis with plans to tour a Frank Lloyd Wright house today.

WT get yourself looked at!

I hope that you can get into either the dentist or doctor pretty quickly WT. Sounds like something is going on and hopefully, you can get meds to clear it up before it sucks more of your holiday time away.

Watching the eagles this morning. Had six here and probably 5-6 more about 75yds down river, trying to get a pic of the others now.

Well I was too slow to get my boots on.. it sounds like there is definitely quite a few around with all the screeching up and down river.

 

[88E30M50]

I think that I'll head down to HHRP this morning. I need to test some ammo and try out the new grips on the P226 to see how they feel.
