| | It's been about 3 weeks. I was told my tooth could be sensitive at first, so I just didn't really bite on it. Then after about a week I tried to bite on it a little, but it was still painful. Now it is even worse and I cannot have any food on the right side of my mouth at all.
The pain is only there when I bite.
I think it is at the back of my tooth and I hope like HECK they can just somehow put more filling stuff over the back of my tooth and that this will all be over and done with. My tooth is a hell of a lot more sore now than it was before I got the filling.
I finally gave in and called the dentist about an hour ago. I have an appointment for 5:30pm today.
I called Fish and told him he must come home from work at 5pm so he can be there with me this time. I called my mother-in-law to ask her if she can look after C while I am at the dentist ("Because I will be screaming and stuff..."). She wasn't home and I am yet to hear back from her.
I had a panic attack between talking to Fish at his work and calling my mother-in-law. C is telling me to "Just take deep breaths, Mummy."
I tell you, that girl is a God-send.
I don't know what I am going to do if she can't go with my mother-in-law though. She can't exactly hear me freaking out. And I know I will. There's no use even thinking positively about this. Usually I do. But in this case - I mean, since the filling I have a panic attack even seeing the dental surgery. So it's going to be awful. I just have to accept it.
I've tried even harder since having the filling to look after my teeth in the hope I would NEVER have to go through the filling process again. And here I am. I'll probably have to have it re-filled from what I have seen on the 'net.
I don't know what to do.
I'm embarassed to go back as well, after how I reacted last time in there. I think I traumatised the actual dentist and nurses with my flash-back and screaming and crying. They will not be happy to see me today.
The feeling is mutual :(
At least Fish will be there with me. Thank goodness. We have our fights, but he is one person who will ALWAYS be there for me when I need him. He'll hold my hand tight and I will be okay. It will be hell but I will be okay.
