I'm off to the dentist this morning to check out a 'grumbling' filling.

| Not by these dental nurses though. They probably caused the need for fillings in later life. |
My teeth are generally OK - not pretty like American ones but they do the job. I haven't had a check up for a couple of years though so I'm well overdue.
It's important to have regular checkups on our bodies and functions, although it doesn't always prevent problems. Yesterday I received a call from a good friend who has been given an awful result from a medical check-up. It's very disturbing.
I mentioned that I had a 'mole-map' procedure last month and will be visiting the doctors for the removal of a superficial basal cell carcinoma soon which is fortunately non-melanomic. It can give peace of mind by checking these things.
I regularly, on advice from my doctor, have blood tests to anticipate potential problems. I might ask her to add in a few other checks considering my friends experience.

Hope your friend is doing okay.
In my day the dental clinic, with all those young ladies, was known as The Murder House.
I think it's the Willis Street one that I used to go to.
