I've been nursing a toothache for more than a Month and finally went to an Emergency Dentist uninsured. Thankfully I had enough money to pay for it but my budget will be off for a few months now. I had the tooth pulled on 5-5-2019, and it was like getting beat up by thugs. It was a rear molar and he had to cut the tooth in two to get it out and one half of the tooth broke into fragments and he had to dig that out. I am sure that he had his muddy boots in my mouth. This was all conscious with only a local. I developed a post op infection, dry socket, and he went in saturday to clean it out like you'd shovel out a milking parlor.

Much to my surprise, Motrin works well to help with the pain, though not 100%, and he gave me some Vicodin to get me through the worst of it. This has been a long long painful illness and I'm feeling worn out and tearful over it. I promise, no drama, no talk of suicide, or any of that stupid crap.

On the bright side, I've lost about 10 lbs. because I can't eat much. It would be nice to get down another 20lbs so I can look hot in my clubbing dress.
