Hi!
Oh Gemini...What a mess! My Dad has made me the root canal thing 2 times. It has not been nice...the pain before. But after he has fixed it all has been OK.
Well, some time ago Dad had to take 2 teeth away from my mouth, upper jaw. First he had to kill my sense of pain. So he gave me 4 shots (2 to first teeth and 2 to second one). After that talking was a little bit hard. You see, the area between my nostrils and my upper lip...I could not feel it! I really could not feel it. It was totally numb. And when the pain killer stuff left my body, I complained Dad like this: "Aw aw aw! Hurts hurts, my upper jaw hurts!"
Well, there were some frosty weather in my time zone too...and oh man, did that cold make the pain worse! Eating was almost impossible. I was not able to chew. The upper jaw hated it for a while. Only liquid food was something I was able to eat, so yoghurt was one huge favourite for me. But now I can eat in normal way already - but not for long. When the next Thursday-Friday - night comes, I must drive home from Aspenwater town (translated from Finnish name). I must be here at 9:30 AM or something like that. You see, there is one special dentist - he is even better dentist than my Dad. He checks my mouth and maybe puts braces there. Aw aw aw....hurts hurts hurts. I know of experience. Ouch ouch ouch! Hurts hurts hurts, upper jaw hurts then! And it is the whole upper jaw, which hurts. I simply am not able to eat much, because when that metal thing is in my mouth, I just can not chew or bite anything. I can only eat liquid and soft food untill the pain goes away. It will, in time, but if something touches my upper teethline before that...I could roar for pain.
So Gemini...I can tell you I understand - at least somehow - what you are going through...even I do not have a fibro. And as you see from my message, there are painful times ahead of me. But I have to be brave and keep going through it.
Best: Pirjo
