Before this i was standing diagonal to her so my bb would at least defuse before hitting her nose . Now that she took the mask off ,I stood right up to her to test . No reaction . Before I could feel myself getting flustered and gave her an incorrect ph number .Now I was able to think straight ,I corrected it . The strangest weight was lifted slightly off me . But I still wasn't assured .
The helper calls my name . A 20 y/o asian kid . Checks my BP and temp,weight .. I lost 10 lbs since last visit 5months ago . In the private room he asks what i'm here for I now am accustom to blurting it out before anxiety gets the better of me . I say "Halitosis " .. hes like "..how do you spell it ..what is it ?" Lol . I say its bad breath . I get none of the usual reactions from him .
My Dr enters . I trust her . She pulls the computer right up to me like 2 feet away and starts firing questions and going over my history . Right away ,I get the feeling that we are going through the motions and she can't smell a Dam thing . I ask her "so wait .. you still don't sense any odor ?" Shes like " my dear.. I'm right up to your mouth .. I'm telling you again like your last visit , I dont smell any bad odor . " at this point ,the awkwardness is to the point that we both probably want to laugh because I can lick her nose if I wanted . She says she saw something on Larry King about a breath pill and was thinking of me . Googles it ,prints it out for me . When I leave, the waiting room is full of 20 or so people . The front desk girl Is Wearing the Mask
To me this and many other encounters screams of how Halitophobia can co-exist WITH halitosis . I would b a Fool to be assured that my breath was fine all the time because of instances like this . To me , This proves that my bb is not likely a sinus issue . I did not eat before todays visit , which I will do next time . On many occasions , a friend and I would go out to eat ,chatting it up in the car ,only to be handed water or gum on the ride home . This is after eating rice noodles , mint, raw lime, and sprouts. Nothing like meat and garlic . Even after having a banana smoothie (nothing but banana and 2 oz of water) I get terrible reactions . This happens at work too. On my drive in ,I eat fruit to power up . I get bad reactions after eat nothing but grapes or apples .
This Morning after the Dr visit , I went to get my tmau test . The place is closed . Vets Day . For now ,no more pursuing to sinuses for me . On to the gut .
