I Hate The Dentist

When it gets to the point where you have swallowed 4000mg of paracetamol in about 2 hours and it hasn't done a thing about the pain in the tooth your dentist wouldn't remove :(

They're obsessed with paracetamol here.

@Hamyamyak: They say you should only take 500mg every 4 hours here.

@Skelepop666: dang. Why wouldn't they remove your tooth?

@Hamyamyak: minor infection i think stopped them, but antibiotics would have at least been better than nothing. Last time I got an infection I OD'ed on painkillers and the dentist was like 'if you have an infection the painkillers won't do anything, you should have come in for antibiotics'.

@Skelepop666: hahah I hate the healthcare here smh. Yeah, you have to pay a crap load in the US but the service is a million times better and faster.

@Hamyamyak: Healthcare seems crap in England too. I've been taking a shed load of painkillers for a week now (probably why they are no longer effective), and still have another week to go until my next appointment. At whch point they will probably be like 'well you have an infection so we can't do anything about it'. No shit, because you didn't give me anything to beat it.
