Hello everyone! I hope you are doing well. I hope that your day is filled with sunshine and rainbows.
Because I am in a world of pain.
So basically, the day I am just about over my cold, my mouth starts hurting. I thought it was just soreness from too much pressure on it. However that pain, on a scale of 1-10, went from a 1 to a 9 within hours. Thank goodness the supervisor at my dentist office made an opening for me, because I was NOT going to last until Monday...
I had to take a combo of Uber and Lyft to get to the dentist, get my prescription, and to get back home. There was a lot of walking in between. The dentist couldn't do any work on the tooth because of the abscess. The tooth it was on was getting worked on by draining it the last time I came in, so that was kinda fortunate. The point is because they couldn't work on it, they gave me antibiotics and pain meds.
Once I got home and I had finally relaxed a bit after taking the pain meds, I realized something. I did all of that traveling around in public, getting in cars with complete strangers, without being on my anxiety/depression meds. I did all that walking around only on the energy of fives crackers. I pushed myself through these situations all because I was in horrific pain that I wanted to do everything to make go away. Pain is quite the motivator. I wouldn't suggest putting yourself in pain just to get things done.(Please don't hurt yourselves; I do not approve) I am saying that you shouldn't be surprised on what you can do when you find yourselves in that situation.
I would love to hear if you have had anything similar happen to you. Have you been in so much pain, that you were willing to do anything(and did) to make the pain stop?
I'm gonna go lay down, watch One Piece, and eat Malt-o-Meal now. Until next week!
