re: Let me succinctly explain my current Tooth Abcess for those who haven’t had the pleasure

I wish you’d have let me know.

I know a great dentist, Doktor Zell.

He’s known as the “White Angel”.



He might ask you the same question a few times though....

took 48 hours for the pain killers to work on mine. Dentist did tell me it would be 48 hours for the antibiotics to kick in and he was spot on. Once the biotics did their thing, the pain killers started working.

I didn't sleep a single minute for 3 nights. 4 most painful days of my life. I was curled up in a ball of pain the whole time. 2 days waiting for the appointment, then 2 days waiting for the antibiotics to kick in.

I was legitimately bonkers before I finally fell asleep on the 4th night.

In 2012 I was thrown from a horse. I broke 4 ribs, I broke the pointy things off of 4 vertebrae, had a compression fracture in another vertebrae and an ruptured adrenal gland which was causing me to bleed internally.

When I got to the emergency room the doc said "what's your pain level"? I said "it's about a 6". He came back with the results of the CT scan which showed all of the damage. He then asked "if this is a 6, what is a 10"?

I asked "you ever had an abscessed tooth"? I wasn't even joking...
