Toothache!! Ouch!!

9 +2

The last 3 days I have felt terrible. I had toothache start overnight on Thursday and combined with being sick and feeling so lethargic and not being able to get a good nights sleep I feel like poo!!

I ended up at the emergency dentist yesterday and ended up having a tooth out near the back and I am still in agony with it now as my gum is sooo sore. I have been taking tons of paracetamol which is not touching the sides and I just don't know what to do anymore.

I have been a completely rubbish mum the last few days and let Ellie have Friday off school as I felt too ill to take her. The kids have been great at looking after me though and I don't know what I'd do without them.

Today they have gone to my parents for the day so I can try and get some rest.

I normally find that eating helps stop me feeling sick but I have hardly eaten anything since Thursday night and I think that could be why I have now started being sick. I am trying to drink plenty of water so I don't get too dehydrated. I am trying to decide whether to phone emergency dentist again and go and see if they can do anything about the pain as I really can't cope with it much longer. It's been 24 hours since I had it out and surely I shouldn't still be in as much pain as I am now.

Will update again when I am feeling a bit better.
