Pain, Like No Other
 

Is what I am going thru right now. I have a chipped molar, and it is exposing a nerve. I will be at the dentist tomorrow, thank god. Unreal, this pain, no lie, is so severe. I have been taking 2 bayer asprin every 4 hours, it's that bad and it still does not kill all the pain.

God this hurts. What really sucks is that later today I will not be able to take any bayer since it thins the blood and I am having this tooth pulled. I may pick up a bottle of whiskey, no lie, if I think it will help. I can't believe how much this hurts. I can hardly function at times.

Sorry, just needed to vent.

Gosh, and I thought I was having a bad day when I threw up before work this morning. I'm taking a half day leaving here in about two hours, but i feel infinitely less bad for myself after reading this.

Hope it gets taken care of tomorrow. Whiskey is the short-term fix for everything bad in the world.

OMG! I hope you guys feel better... :(

Next time you take any bayer, chew it up first. That way it will digest easier and faster and some may get up into that tooth to help it faster.

I hope you feel better.

I hope it passes sooner than Friday for yoursake B. From everything I have heard they are a BEYOTCH!

curt...you can also get some of that special dental wax (like they give to kids with braces) and use it to cover your tooth so it is less exposed...I had something similar happen a couple years ago...OUCH...

2Min and Baba, I feel for both of you, deeply.

2Min, why can your dentist not SAVE this molar by sending you to a specialist for a root canal? It may take a $1000 hit to your Visa, yet still you would be saving an important tooth. And if it needs a crown, true, that's bigger bucks.

If you're young, its worth saving though.

I think Pais is right about the dental wax, still Friday is a long way to be in this kind of pain. An abcess of that tooth is the worst pain you could EVER endure, worse than what you're handling right now. Lord help you if that's the case.

Baba, bless you, I've never had a kidney stone! Tell 'em to demolish it with lithotripsy. You're floatin' if you're downing Percocet 2 at a time.

i feel for you!! had 1 about 1/4 of that size and i KNOW how much pain i was in! i ended up in the ER 2 nights in a row at 3am...
don't think i'd wish that on anyone!

Tooth pain is the worst pain I've had, expect when my appendix ruptured 11 years ago...sorry! :( :( :(

try some Anbesol??
can't believe they are making you wait that long.:(

Um, yeah... that would suck. :eek:

What the hell are you waiting til Fri for? those jagged edges you're talking about do Damage!!! I had a stone so big it took 3 blasts from the machine to break it up! Get it done!

He seems like a glutton for punishment. J/K :D

Geesh... make sure they leave it in one piece so you can use it again!

Crap! My thoughts will be with you on Friday! Just make sure you are out for the putting in...and the "taking out" of the catheter..gives me the willies just thinking about it.

LOL.

Good luck and I mean that.

You may want to consider shaving yourself before you go in.

Unless you want to take your chances on who the barber is that day!
