Jan. 16th, 2009 08:04 amBah. I had a broken filling replaced a couple of months ago and the dentist said that she'd done her best, but there was still a chance that the decay under the broken filling would require a root canal - they'd take another x-ray at my next checkup, and I should come back if it started hurting before then.
Last night I got sudden severe pain in the same tooth. It's still there. I haven't been to sleep, and right about 8.30 I'm heading over to arrange an emergency appointment.
For the record, being awake at 5.30 on a January morning, having had no sleep and with no prospect of sleep, is kind of shit. And taking the day off to try and get at least a temporary fix will really mess up my work - we have a large deadline at 8 am Monday, and I do have some residual conscience towards my colleagues. I may end up working over the weekend.
However, I have a pint of coffee and a cynical disposition, so basically all is well.
