Dreadful toothache!
I've had toothache since Friday, getting worse daily.....pretty sure its an abcess. I managed to get an energency dental app. today. It cost me £125, plus £20 for 2 lots of antibiotics. I was given the choice to remove the tooth, at a cost of £168 or to try to save it...root canal treatment costing just shy of £1000!
Im going back Wednesday morning to have it removed. The dentist gave me a number of numbing injections to help with the pain....but boy oh boy.....the pain was unbareable when they wore off! After taking all my meds i went to bed but woke on dreadful pain an hour later. Ive literally been crying and screaming in pain.
I took more pain relief, but im now itching all over....a reaction to the codiene.... so....i've now taken antihystimine too.
The only thing thats given me any relief is a bag of frozen peas on the side of my face. ....its also given relief from the itching on my legs.
So.....im finally temporarilly painfree and nheading back to bed......see how long before i'm woken with pain again.
