I have a toothache. I've had it for nearly 2 weeks now...

I'm on penicillin for it, but the pain gets unbearable at times. It's in a tooth that was filled about 6 months ago... oddly enough, I had no trouble with it until it was filled.

I'm down for a root canal on Tuesday, but if the infection hasn't cleared, it could be another week. Application of ibuprofen, paracetamol and ice packs is not helping but it's amusing my work colleagues, watching me clutch bottles of frozen water to my face.

I'm not a happy bunny.
