Y'all betta hada missed me!!! lol
I've been MIA for days....well....after we left the Mo'Nique show taping on Thursday, I had a toothache. It didn't really get bad until Friday evening. Then I swear Satan was digging in my tooth with a pitch fork he held in fire for 2000 hours! At least that's what it felt like.
About 2 months ago, I had a cavity filled and she said she saw the root. She just filled it and told me it would have to come out. So, I knew I would have to get it pulled one day...but that woman said it might be 2 years from now. Well so much for that! lol Needless to say, my other dentist was closed when it got bad. So, I started doping myself up with everything from Aleve, Advil, Hydrocodone and anything else that I thought would work. Finally I took some Motrin 800 and it helped some....so I just kept dealing with the pain and waiting for today to get the wisdom tooth pulled. I woke up this morning and ran to the dentist. He pulled it.
It was really rough because the roots of my tooth were curved and touched at the bottom. And, in doing that, the roots made a half circle. The nerve he had to get was in that half circle. And, we didn't find this out until I kept feeling excruciating pain when he pulled. He cut the tooth in half and then shot me in between the split. I came up out of the chair and he said, "That's the sweet spot!" I wanted to cuss him out. lol I know him personally so it would have been ok, just not very professional. lol Anyway, once he hit the nerve, and it was numb....I didn't care what he did to me, and it came right out.
Now I sit here, mouth wide open....and probably slobbing! lol It still hurts like hell, but this is a different type of hurt. This hurt hurts down in the bone, but I'll take that from the sharp stabbing pain of the tooth. This weekend was ridiculously awful and I hope to NEVER feel that pain again!!!!
I'm rambling on because I've had nothing but Cream of Wheat to eat since Friday and dammit I'm mad! lol I can't wait to be out of pain AND eat real food and y'all pray for me that this heals quick before I go and throw a rock through some random person's windshield! lol

I know exactly what you are going through. I had to have all 4 of my wisdom teeth pulled last year so I definitely sympathize. Just make sure you drink plenty of clear liquids and keep your mouth rinsed well so you don't end up with dry socket from where they pulled the tooth and try your best to keep food from that area. Also, it helps to use a warm compress where they pulled the tooth to help with the swelling and eat soft foods. I hope you feel better soon.
