Poor Me!

[sars_notd_virus]

Ended up going to the dentist today after being plagued by recurring toothache for most of the past weekend. Turned out an *abscess had formed adjacent to one of my few remaining BIG back teeth ... *for which I was duly prescribed a short course of Amoxicillin 250 mg capsules to be taken 3 times daily spaced out ... over the next 7 days.

Having already gone through ... HELL? (That certainly!) But ... what I meant to say was - in spite of consuming a full 16-pack of Tesco's extra powerful painkillers since the onset of the problem late last Friday evening and starting my prescription - I'm still getting agonising twinges gnawing away while I sit here waiting impatiently for the antibiotics to "kick in" properly.

Ouch!

Get well soon sir Art.
Dave has got the same problem, they put filling on his tooth six months ago and realized it was no good and needs to be extracted in the end
I never stop contacting NHS 111 until the problem was resolved...He is now a happy bunny but not happy paying 50quid for it

Thank you Mari to learn that Dave has had problems with his filling though. Sometimes extraction is the best remedy ... and I wish that course of action had been suggested for mine after the last occasion an abscess formed on the affected site.

Glad to read Dave's gotten rid of his pain and I'm happy to report that, for the first time in nearly a week, I woke up this morning without the horrible gnawing sensation.
