Max69vk Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 Finally after a week + of f*cking around I've got an apointment to see my GP (see seperate thread for full details) & what happens? I've somehow within the space of 24hrs managed to get toothache like nothing I've ever experienced before! It's that bad that even after chugging down (probably too many) painkillers & applying a benzocaine based local aneathstetic, Im still in agony to the point its making me feel sick style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> I've just got off the phone to the NHS trust 0845 number to try & find an emergency dentist to sort it out & am waiting a call back, but Im not holding out much hope as its going to look like another long sleepless night. I dont give a sh*t about how much it costs, I've got insurance, I just want this pain gone! Typical that this happens at once & just before E38, if I get it sorted my cheeks are probably going to look like Marlon Brando out of the Godfather!

Max69vk Posted August 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 Just had a call back, Im going to have to wait till morning as there is no emergency service in my area style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wtf:" border="0" alt="wtf.gif" /> The next 24-48hrs look like they're going to be fun! style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottgroovez Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 Tooth pain is awful. My wisdom tooth was giving me terrible pain earlier this year, to the point I just couldn't sleep. Really does make you feel crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max69vk Posted August 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 Thats what it feels like tbh my last couple of back teeth & jaw etc are just throbbing with pain, I'd say that it actualy feels worse that when I managed to smash one of my teeth in half leaving the nerve exposed!

Max69vk Posted August 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 (edited) Cheers for the advice guys but at the moment Im already popping ibuprofen & codeine tabs like they're smarties, & Im using something called Orajel which is made from clove oil & Benzocaine (local aneasthetic) & none of its doing much good! style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> To add to the fun I just went down to the doctors & they double booked my appointment with them which means I've got to go back again this afternoon + I've got to try & get an emergency appointment today for the dentist style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" /> (EDIT:) Ok, I must have p*ssed off God in a big way somehow just rang up the dentist for an emergency appointment 'Oh yes, we can fit you in sir. How does 4.40 today sound'?.........Bloody fantastic, apart from the fact that its exactly the same time as my rescheduled doctors appointment!F*CKING TYPICAL!!! style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":angry2:" border="0" alt="angry.gif" /> Edited August 30, 2006 by Max69vk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putney Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 i would have thought if you have insurance there would be some emergency number on that, hope you get it sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigMon Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 Toothache is horrendous. I've crap teeth too. My worst pain was when a wisdom tooth root snapped, meaning the bare nerve was grating against the snapped root. At exam time too. Lovely that was.Hope it gets sorted soon mate.

Max69vk Posted August 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 The doctor was pretty cool I explained about the whole tooth thing & asked if he could give me anything even to get me through one night & he's given me 3 boxes of 30 Co-dydromol 500mg painkillers.... Basically enough to knock out a herd of elephants! style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Hows the dvd set? Was tempted to buy it & re-live my childhood too!

Max69vk Posted August 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 I had no money & was in major pain with one of my back teeth, the dentist had previously totally drilled the tooth out & put a major filling in it. The pain was getting unbearable & the only thing that seemed to provide relief was when the tooth was moved or had pressure applied to 'lift' it up, as I was fiddling around I noticed the filling was loose, God knows why but I grabbed the nearest thing to me (screwdriver) & gave it a good jab style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blush:" border="0" alt="blush.gif" /> Needless to say it was a jab too far & the tooth shattered leaving the nerve exposed, so went to the bank got myself majorly overdrawn & got down the dentist quick time. After an 1/2 hour of trying the dentist couldnt remove the tooth & ends up shattering it down to the gumline which then means I have to get whisked off to a dental hospital for an op to get it out. Turns out the tooth had fused on to my jaw bone so I had to have my gums cut open to remove the tooth, also turn out the dentist had put so much pressure on my jaw trying to remove the tooth he'd hairline fractured my jaw too!
