X-rays. More chuffin x-rays

So I'm just back from the area hospital. I had two x-rays today. One for my jaw and one for my chest.
The chest x-ray was because after my last kidney stone removal op, I came out of hospital with a cough. That I still have! Although it is nothing like it was, apparently I have some damage to my lungs. A small section has collapsed and the rest of the lung has filled the space. It is not enough to cause any ailment, but it's still no fun to have these images taken. Lets hope my latest dose of antibiotics finally sort it out.

Now, my jaw x-ray. Just before Christmas, I got down on the floor to give my little bunny Fudge some attention. I was on my knees and leaning forward, like I was trying to do an impression of a dog. My right hand was on a rug and the rug was on the shiny laminate floor and it slid away suddenly, bringing my jaw into contact with the marble fire hearth that Fudge was sitting on. 3 fillings smashed out and 2 cracked teeth later, I took myself off to the dentist who did emergency patching of the fillings and one of the cracked teeth, but she ignored what I was saying about the other tooth saying ''it'll be fine. You wont need anything doe with it''. WRONG. Two days later my tooth shattered leaving a little peg shaped bit. But at least it didn't hurt anymore.
Now, the problem I have is that in the UK, a private dentist is not cheap, and the NHS dentists still charge a set fee. When you have an income smaller than Obama's fan base, it is not easy to get help.

But hey, at least I have my health. Oh. Hang on..............
