LeAnn Rimes visits ER, cites 'dental nightmare'

LeAnn Rimes is recovering after a pretty rough weekend.

She paid a visit to the ER very early Sunday morning as a result of what she calls "dental issues."

The singer and actress, who is married to Eddie Cibrian, recently completed a 30-day stint in rehab to deal with stress and anxiety.

The ER visit follows a Twitter message the singer sent early Saturday saying that she was "under anesthesia and a massive infection." In that tweet, she said, "I feel like I got hit in my right side of my face with a baseball bat :( NOT a good feeling when I am getting on a plane. For all my fans at Wendover last night, the show will be rescheduled, not a canceled show. WORST way ever to kick off a tour."

She managed to perform at a gala at the Autry Museum at Griffith Park in Los Angeles later Saturday, but by Sunday, she blogged about visiting the ER at 3 a.m.:

"Feeling much better now, thanks to my husband's best friend who's an ER doc. I've been living in a dental nightmare for 10 months. I'm getting back on track though, I hope. I've had too many detours this year due to dental issues. I'm finally in great hands and being well taken care of. Last night was wonderful, performing to help raise money for the Autry Museum and earlier in the day performing a few songs to help raise money for the cats and dogs at living-free.org Needless to say, I'm resting today. Thank you all for your support and understanding. The last 10 months of pain are hard for me to wrap my head around. I'm sure it's difficult for you all to understand too. Let's just pray I'm on the mend. I'll see you all on the road very soon. "
