My Achy Breaky Tooth :(

Saturday, January 12, 2013

I wish I could say Good morning Peeps...but I can only say Hey peeps emoticon
Where to begin...well this is a two day story...Yesterday morning I woke up with a massive pain in my jaw, teeth, head and ears. I mean I was curled up on the bed crying. My first thought was that I must have lost a filling and part of a tooth and the nerve is exposed. I am still in extreme pain this morning having enjoyed only 4 hours sleep. The four hours I did get involved some Advil and ice packs on my face. I really feel like Rocky--like I have been pounded in the boxing ring. This is not the case something is going on. The dentist I was going to doesn't have hours until Monday. However given my state of pain and need for pain mangement, I have found an emergency dentist and I am trying to get in this morning. IF they can't help me the ER it is for some help. It hurts soooooo bad I cna't even explain it to you. I have been googling and I am finding it may be a filling issue causing all of this but it could also be TMJ--this has to do with a tendon in my jaw. I have never had this but have heard people say they have. I am googling now to see what the treatment is! I will let you know when I feel better!!

    So sorry you are hurting! I have tmj. I started running & found a chiropractor who has helped get/keep tmj under control. I hope you are feeling better and getting rest. Lifting you up! Prayers! emoticon jen
