Enough already!

I have 2 old implants in my mouth. I was beginning to get pain around them, particularly one of them. After seeing my dentist I went to get a second opinion. I was told that one of the implants is beginning to fail. It was suggested that I see an oral surgeon, who could clean out the site and maybe do a bone graft to stabilize things.
This afternoon it was feeling better, and I was hardly noticing it, but when I was eating some supper I bit down in it very hard inadvertently, because something startled me, and the pain hit so hard! It won't subside, so after 2 hours of it I finally took a Norco. It's still not helping.

So now it's not just the MC and horrible C, my back and shoulder. My jaw hurts! Tooth pain is the worst thing in the world! In fact when I want to describe my back pain I say it's like a toothache in my back.

I hope I can sleep tonight!

Lesley,
That's all you need, tooth pain, on top of everything else that you are dealing with. I hope it subsided and you were able to sleep.

I actually had to take 2 Norco tablets, which I have kicked, in order to get to sleep. I hate the feeling!
Right now I am trying to get hold of a surgeon who will see me urgently. It's Friday, and I don't want to go through the weekend in agony and/or stoned.

Ouch! I hope you can get it fixed soon.

Hope you were able to see the surgeon and that it is better now and not being so painful.

Love, Maggie
