    Keep after your dentist to help you.  Ask him if you could have dry socket and if so, isn't there something he could/should be putting in the space to alleviate your pain.  Grrr. these lazy doctors and dentist not wanting to bother helping their patients on weekends...  

    If he won't see you tomorrow, I've read you can try clove oil - but I've read it can burn, so you need to dilute it.  Livestrong.com says to dilute it with vegetable oil.

    http://www.livestrong.com/article/469175-clove-oil-as-a-dry-socket-remedy/ 

    People have mentioned there is a Red Cross toothache kit. It has a product called Eugenol - which I think is the chemical in clove oil that provides relief.  I've read that gently swishing with warm salt water helps.  If you have pain in your neck, ice helps.  Some people have had luck with an Oragel or Canker-X topical oral anesthetic. 

    Here is a website where people wrote in about their experiences and what they did and what helped.  For the people who said they tried the clove oil and it burns - I think that might be because they didn't dilute it - as suggested by Livestrong.com.

    It is best if the dentist helps you, but if he won't, you can try these things.  I'm so sorry you are in so much pain.

    Maybe the antibiotic has started working too!  Hope today is better for you. 

    DH had to go up to the cabin and I needed to stay home for something else.  Plan was I would get up this morning and drive up.  However, it is snowing and freezing fog and while I love my car, it is rear wheel drive.  I think it's time to rethink the vehicle.

    DD was invited to a party at former boyfriends family home last night.  She had a good time - I don't think this friend thing wil last long.  Hope not!

    Better get in the shower and warm up - it is cold!  And I am never cold!

    It's not snowing in the city, but on the way to cabin and at the cabin.  Yes, we have heat there.  DH is on his way to get me. DS and DIL are already on their way.  It's only an hour and ten minutes away.

    How are you today Sheila?

    Hope the pain killers are keeping the pain away, Sheila. 

    Hi Sandy.  So glad you were finally able to get rid of that drain!

    Said goodbye to a HS friend with a handful of friends from class of 69.  I hate to say this but the funeral home did not present her very well, they did not put any make up on her at all and her neck was all wrinkly and bloated.  No excuse.

    We stopped at the Bull Run in Shirley and raised a glass in honor to Ellen.  I had Stuffed Roasted Vegetable Ravioli, creamy corn sauce, toasted corn and eggplant salad.

    Sorry for the lose of your friend, Deb. When DH's sister passed, the funeral home gave here huge perky breasts, everyone knew she never looked liked that and it was sooo noticable.  Maybe the family did not give the Funeral home good pictures of your friend (or maybe they charge more to put make up on).

    Well our club held it's annual koi show this weekend (with DH as chairman of the show.)  It is always a lot of work to put on, and I am exhauster.  DH took today off work, but I don't have that luxury.  This was the biggest show we have put on in the 13 years we have been doing it.  We had people come from all over CA.

    Surprise to DH and I, we won a major prize and had a lot of the "bigger players" were very interested in our koi. 

    Now today, back to the real world and the grindstone!

    Oh, and the wedding is now 26 days away.  Now that the koi show is over, I can concentrate on the dresses.  Tonight, however, my poor neglected house will get some overdue attention.

    Sandy, the wedding is an outdoor, afternoon wedding, but the weather in November is cold, so I was hoping for a long dress.
