I can't go to sleep because the pain intensifies when I try to sleep. Getting up and doing things seems to drastically reduce and even stop the pain.
:-(
I took 2 Advils and it didn't work. I took one of my Mom's Tylenol 3's.
I went to the dentist today and he couldn't do anything but give me antibiotics. He said I grind my teeth at night. He said I wore my teeth down. Why didn't he tell me I grind my teeth during my biyearly check-ups??? He should have told me so I could prevent the grinding!
The dentist said now there is nothing that can be done. Do I have to live with a toothache the rest of my life? :-(
This sucks. I can't go on like this. I can't just keep taking Tylenol 3's. I'll run out.
Whaaaaaaa! My tooth... :-(
The pain stopped for now. I don't know if it's because the Tylenol 3 kicked in (it hasn't been that long) or because I'm up instead of trying to fall asleep.
It's really weird how there is little or no pain during the day and lots of pain at night. What could cause this?
I'm a complainer. :-(
I can't handle the pain.
Toothache, please go away. Please never come back.
