I could dig a hole and just burry myself alive

The Irony of the last post...today I was diagnosed with reversible pulpitis, and goodness knows what that is.In lay men terms however it meant that I had to have 6 FILLINGS!!!!!!!!!!! The disastrous thing is that I couldn't sit for my paper today because I was in severe pain. I had made half the trip to uni when I doubled back and got my aunt to take me to the dentist...in pain I had to wait an hour before any dentist could see me. I was at the dentist from 2.30-5. I have always had bad teeth(not like rotten because of candy,but I have brittle teeth. If you shone a torchlight at my teeth it looks opaque)....as my family and even friends from back home would testify to! The thing is I can apply for a differed paper, however in the process I burnt a humongous hole/crater in my dad's pocket...SIX FILLINGS...do the math....

Feeling ultra shitty at the moment! :(

EE Lin: youborn with it ...but also I didnt help to improve it as I was growing up. My mum used ot nag me like crazy to eat cheese,drink milk, and in high school she used to always ask me to take calcium supplements! BUT NO! I had to be defiant! ahahahaha... so now I am paying the price! but now I have started to floss, drink for milk and I am taking calcium...so might take about a year I guess for improvement! awww the pain! I rahter take pills! the damn pain wne down till my shoulders coz of the nerve! wanted to die!

Steph: Thank u so much..I am better now ..hope u are holding up well too! remember u are strong! and u should be proud of yourself! u have come so far!

Lin said...

yeah, u should =) since studying human nutrition, i always make sure i acquire all the vitamins n minerals i need...remember to at least 3 glasses of milk a day, 2 slices of cheese = 1 glass of milk. so u do the calculation...LOL well, if not enough calcium also, try cleaning ur teeth often aft eating sweet stuff...or gargle...i bet those little actions help! ;)
hope u're feeling better now *muaks*

prasana@poel said...

jennifer said...

gosh. hope you're betTER!! i dont exactly know how fillings are like but how come there's pain? did it happen cos you ate too much chocs??? but that's like..soo soon! i mean like, happens so quick you having this pain thing =S

prasana@poel said...

well I had the pain from few months back on and off. I kept on putting off the dentist..got triggered by the extra choc I guess!

Fillings dont hurt...but the thing is my teeth decayed..so he had to dig out those parts..and drill then only fill...and i got 5-8shots! so gums were sore...this was nothing compared to root cannel!!! and my wisdom tooth removal!

Lin said...

omg...i can't possibly imagine the agony!

my wisdom teeth also not completely out yet...i can see them coming out d la...LOL

i'm not wise yet XD

jennifer said...

omg! so much worse than yr wisdom tooth episode!? oh gosh. that must have been hard!! luckily it's all done

prasana@poel said...

Jenn:no no this was NOT as bad as that...so i guess i shouldnt complain as much...hahahaha.

Ee Lin: well dont wprry now...once it starts coming out...u'll know if it will be ok ..like if it comes out straight,and easy to reach..then it wont be like mine la...mine is like a non frequent case....most ppl have it done easily..like normal abstraction.
