Well, the pain that started Saturday, wasn't too bad over the weekend, was a little bit worse this morning, has now progressed into a full-scale throbbing ouchie.
If my bottom teeth touch that front toothe by accident, OMG the pain - I said the heck with my dentist, called the endodontist myself, explained the situation - and the fact that I'll be on a plane on Thursday, and they told me to come in at 3:30 and we'll get the root canal started today.
Now I need to keep my fingers crossed that by drilling a hole into the back of my acrylic temporary crown that it won't cause the crown to split and fall off.
I feel like a snowball rolling down the hill with an avalanche right behind me.
Or like I'm running waist-deep in mud: My teeth are dying faster than I can try to maintain them. When do I stop pouring money into the black hole that is what is left of my natural teeth and get them all pulled out?!?
I don't mind the root canal - but this is starting to get past ridiculous. No matter what I do, I just can't keep up.
