bah (the whinge element)

Woke up at 3:30am last night after going to bed ~ 10:30pm. Didn't get back to sleep.

1-6 tooth is throbbing again, cheek feels swollen.

Hit a roadblock in the code, really frustrating...

You know, I just want to throw this out there just in case - but I have much the same problems with my teeth, throbbing tooth and the cheek hurts and is swollen, and it isn't the tooth. It's the muscle that is hurting from grinding my teeth at night (when I don't wear my nightguard for awhile). The muscle makes the tooth hurt but I have to treat the muscle (ibuprofen for swelling and pain).

I don't know if you've discussed this with your dentist? Do you grind your teeth at all? Anyhow, I just wanted to say something just in case, because I know you've been having so much trouble and I hate tooth pain myself, more than any other kind.

I have a nightguard and it definitely helps, but the ache comes on during the day, and particularly after eating things, even when I shuffle food to the other side of the mouth.

But, yeah, the dentist mentioned the teeth grinding and got me a nightguard to help deal with it. It's been very helpful these last couple of months.

Then my only other suggestion is to buy a new head with a better warranty. ;-)
