Dec. 12th, 2005 09:50 pmThe root canal didn't go smoothly at all.
After he started working on it, he told me the tooth is really infected. After working on it I'm not sure what happened, but a wave of nausea passed over me and I started gagging. He put some medicine in the tooth and quickly closed it up so I could run to the bathroom. I didn't throw up, but I almost passed out a couple times. The dentist made me stay in a room with my legs elevated for a while just to make sure I was OK. I don't know what exactly happened, but I haven't almost blacked out like that in years.
I got prescribed some penicillin to take, and now I'm trying to eat food again and drink stuff other than water. I think yesterday I dehydrated myself by drinking so much water.
Hopefully I'm going to be well enough to go to work tomorrow, but I don't think I will unless something changes. Right now I feel a little nauseous again, and I've got a bit of a cold sweat.
