I may have a dry socket :(

My pain meds do not make the pain go away. This started this morning and I attempted to go to work any way. I heard of a possible remedy at walgreens, and when I tried it, I reacted in a bad way. I ended up going home early. My bf picked me up, since I was feeling so terrible. His mom drove him, so he could drive me home. I'm thankful for them both. It still hurts. Why are doctors/dentist closed on the weekend?

Oh no! I had one of those once, no fun at all. :C you could go to the ER, but the only thing they will do there is give you more pain meds. Sorry, I hope you're able to get an appointment soon!

I have pain meds but I feel it right through them. Its not constantly the same level of pain. So at times I get a reprieve but I not sure what calms it down. I did try to call the dentist, but their answering service didn't work, and it said the line was not valid. :P They are getting a call from me as soon as they open on Monday. Maybe I will call them from their parking lot. :P

Oh this feels better. It was still hurting today, and feeling slightly better, but I went to the doctor, and he filled it temporarily and it feels soo much better now :)

Oh that's good to hear. There is not much that compares with tooth pain when you're feeling it, just the worst. :( Glad you got it taken care of, hopefully it wont give ya too much trouble now.
