painful follow up...better

Regimen of hydrogen peroxide rinse, then a 20 minute rinse with Sunflower oil (thank you Oma Heidi) twice a day has brought the pain to a tolerable level without the Daypro. Got a full 4 hours sleep last night...well this morning after 4AM.
I was able to have my breakfast of buckwheat cakes and an omlette, (sorry Lane they had no grits and bourbon).1

Thanks everyone for your sympathy, yeh toothaches are the worst. I think I can make it till Monday now, maybe even beyond. Once pain reaches a cetain reduced level, it can be ignored. 2

NIce people that they are I HATE the dentist office.

    HEY NOW!

    Narrowed eyes... I take offense to that. LOL.

    And, though hydrogen peroxide rinses may help temporarily, and are pretty helpful in other ways (help whiten teeth, help prevent infection in your throat), they are certainly not a remedy for an abscessed tooth or for tooth decay.

    Glad you finally got some sleep. Though pitiful little.

    I would have stayed up with you and talked to you - but I had to be at work SUPER EARLY this morning for the candy buy back.

    "maybe even beyond" - THE HELL!!!

    I will kick your little white ass if you don't get to a dentist PRONTO. I mean it. Don't make me drive all that way. I'm calling you tomorrow and making sure you have an appointment. Or else!

Life should be as the winds of Nature, sometimes breezy often gale force, but flowing non-the-less in a natural way.
