I did not post yesterday because my dentist is a sadistic bastard. I was curled over in more pain than I have ever experienced. I have not been to the dentist in like eight years. Perhaps I will wait another eight? It is a freaking waste of time for me. I have good teeth and I maintain them pretty damn good. Even when I went regularly the dentist only had me come in once a year. It was always the same story “floss more, see you in a year”. I had a cavity from time to time but all in all pretty good teeth.
My woman talked me into going to the dentist. I agreed because a little less than a year ago I had a wisdom tooth come in and I know they can cause trouble so I wanted it looked at. Funny I don’t feel a lick smarter?
It took two months or so to get into the dentist. Shortly after the appointment was made I must have lost a filling or something. This caused food to get stuck in my rear most molar. Two weeks before my appointment I was cleaning some food from my tooth and got the little tool stuck which broke off a chunk of my tooth. I think I got a cavity under an old filling or something.
So yesterday the bastard dentist from hell was grinding away at my tooth when he hit the fucking nerve! Thank the FSM I said yes when he asked me if I wanted Novocaine. So when the dentist was done he showed me a little drawing and told me all he had done. “The decay was close to the nerve.” Close my ass! He was in the fucking nerve!
So I left the office feeling like I just gave a shipload of sailors two for one blow jobs and went home. I was not too bad all considered. Then 6:00 came and the Novocaine wore off. It started slow at first until the pain consumed my entire body and left me a weak and feeble ball on the floor. I had to take a power dump and was left cold damp and crabby. From both the dump and the pain.
Now you tell me why the bastard dentist did not give me some pain meds? He knew damn well he hit the nerve… he told me he did! I took some tylenol but it did not react as fast as I would have liked and it only took enough pain away so that I could see well enough to not piss on the floor when aiming for the bathtub.
So today I am much better. Just a lingering feeling that my tooth wants me dead. I have to say though for eight years of not going to the dentist only one cavity seems quite good. It is not even a new cavity so much as a rework on an old one. Next Monday I get to have that wisdom tooth pulled!! They give you pain meds for that right?
