I woke up this morning with the whole side of my face swollen. Ugh. It doesn’t really hurt, but it does feel strange. I’m going to have to visit the dentist, but when? I have to work today and the next few days which means no time for a dentist visit.

I will call, though, and see if I can be squeezed in at some point. Maybe the dentist can give me something to bring down this swelling until he can really take care of the tooth problem. I’ve been needing to do this for awhile anyway so maybe this is just a wake up call for me.

At least with no pain so far I don’t have to be concerned about taking prescription pain medications. I’ve known people who wound up in drug rehab from abusing them, which I would never do intentionally. But I sometimes wonder if those same folks started out innocently enough and it just got too big for them to handle on their own?
