IF YOU ARE SQUEAMISH AND CAN'T TAKE THE THOUGHT OF PAIN PLEASE DON'T READ ON.
I've had a bout of toothache all week. I rang the dentist yesterday morning about it as it was in the same spot as about six weeks back. I had mentioned it to him as it had happened a week before I went to see him but as always had disappeared when I got to him for my routine check up. Anyway I was told to ring up first thing this morning and I would be slotted in as an emergency appointment. I got there and after x-rays told me that the nerve in the tooth was dying and tooth would have to come up. After numbing me up he started to extract it. Unfortunately though it wasnt numb enough and after much effort was only able to remove half of it. I am now on antibiotics and pain killers big enough to knock out half of Dumbo's family!!!
I took to the bed earlier as well for a duvet hour. Anyone who knows me knows that I have to be really rough to hit the bed but I must say that it is at times like this that you do discover who your friends in the real world actually are (I dont mean those out there reading the blog either!).
The upside of this though is that I don't have teeth like Dracula - well could you imagine.

Aww - poor wee thing. Virtual hugs to you!
Poor sod - go to bed & take plenty of painkillers. At least you don't have the meeting from hell tomorrow!
Sorry you're feeling rotten not much worse than toothache is there. I'm at home too - rotten sore throat and cough - knocked the stuffing out of me. Hope you get better soon. xx
Yuck! My dentist will remove a nerve and leave the tooth - lucky for me as he's done a few. A couple of medicinal Scotches? Works for me :-)
