I was at the dentist. haven't been there in 5, 6 or 7 years...something like that. anyhow I was always cool with my teeth and they were cool with me...but like a year ago or so I was chewing that one candy peice and it kinda split my backtooth/grinder into half...a good chunk of it just fell out. no blood or nothing. no pain really. so I just moved on...over time though the hole grew bigger and long story short, the tooth is in some sort of purgatory, and the dentist thinks we have a chance of bringing him back to life, thus he removed the nerve from its roots today and made way for a healing process.
I wouldn't have gone if it wasn't for the last night/this morning where I was in pain for like 5 hours while that left side of my mouth was hurting/pounding every damn second. holy shit that was intense. my girlfriend gave me a painkiller but that didn't really come through....I was lying on the balcony at degrees below 0 just to feel some other pain...I feel asleep after 5 or 6 hours in total of pure pain. it was okay when I woke up but still there, so I saw the dentist today and now I'm getting this shit sorted out. finally I guess.
"There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die."
It's been a while since I've been to the dentist also. I wish I could go to get my wisdom teeth removed, but with no insurance, it's probably gonna be more than I can afford. Hope you're feeling better though, Henry!
