Officially Broke Again
This could *NOT* happen at a worse time.
My loan approval came through, I just paid for my plane tickets and then instead of a simple filling, I get caught with a fucking root canal and crown instead.
Me: I need a filling.
Dentist: La la la la la (drill). Root canal. Come back next week for the crown.
Me: Huh?
Dentist: That'll be $350 today and $2000 next week.
Me: WTF?!?!
Dentist: Oh, do you have health insurance? They cover some of the cost.
Me: What happened to the filling?
Dentist: Ha ha...I can give you a $100 discount. How about that?
Me: ...
Dentist: I'm sure we can work out a payment plan. You can pay me a thousand next week and the other thousand the week after.
Me: *burst in to tears*
Dentist: Look, look, we can work this out OK?
So, anyone interested in buying a kidney? A lung?

"HOOOLEY DOOLEY !"
That'll be 11 fillings and 6 crowns thanks !
At least he consulted before doing the root canal and crown #1....
Can you put the crown off ?

He told me to just think about it first.
You need 6 crowns? You'll need to sell babyelvis to pay for that.

I considered extraction for my root-canal tooth, but it is likely to cause chaos in my mouth.

Surely you have to give informed consent before they charge you a stupid sum of money?

Hope the second opinion gives you some better angles to go from.
Hopefully it all works out -cheaper-, also, good luck with nutrition plan, lots.
