Steph, try icing it. Seriously. I've stopped a flare up that way, before it got out of control (and I've had huge and many teeth problems).
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Do you have any clove oil or Orajel, Steph?

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.
Ginger, I don't have either one. I realized a little too late (i.e., at my mom's watching the Super Bowl) that Orajel would probably help.
I figure once I call tomorrow at 8:00, I'll be able to come up with a plan of attack based on when they can get me in. For now, I just took another dose of ibuprofen and percocet, and that should let me sleep.

Yeah, I'd make Tim run out and get clove oil, orajel, and a freezable baby teething ring

Tomorrow. I think tonight is pass-out time.

Vortex, thank you for the advice!
Steph, oh. I have zero advice on this, but I hope you'll be able to see a dentist ASAP.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
This is not as bad as a toothache, because those are the worst, but being up at 12:30 on a Sunday night with food poisoning is no fun either. I think I could sleep if I could feel better, and I'd feel better if I could sleep, but neither is happening.

Changed my mind. Worse than a toothache.

Trust my rage
Ugh, Dana, food poisoning is one of the worst. Hopefully, you are resting?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
