Feeling like a baby | rand0m blog

So last night, I’m laying there on the couch after a whole day of doing absolutely nothing, and it hits me that part of my lip is numb. Well, that’s not good news. So I go to sleep [end up not getting any], and calling the dentist this morning. Well, the dentist wasn’t there, because it’s Friday. That’s understandable … must be pretty nice being a doctor, eh? Anyhow, gave Lucy, the head runs-the-show lady the story about feeling like I got hit by a semi, the unending pain, and the numbness, and she told me she’d talk to the doctor. Got a phonecall right around 11am, and the story is this … first off, I overdosed on Ibuprofen. This accounts for the feeling absolutely terrible on thursday. As for the pain & numbness, she said that it is more than likely an abscessed tooth. The doctor did a phone prescription of some antibiotics and some vicodin [!] for the pain. I am really surprised at how cheap drugs are … I was expecting like $50 for 20 pills, but it was $16.58 for a bottle of vicodin and 40 antibiotics. Anyhow, I did some reading up on what an abscessed tooth is, and found that this website clarifies it the best. Have a read, and then laugh at the wild amount of agony that I am enduring. oof. :-/

ummm…I could have told you that your teeth look puss-y and tout that you have bad breath. Also,,,we all know about your cerebral abcess. Hope you feel better and that you don’t puke out of any cars and humiliate your sibling. If you were the great guy you claim…you would share the vicodin with the rest of us. M

m’kay…. so you have 2 identical twin sisters that simultaeneously post at the same time…. wow…. and randal— don’t get happy with the vicodin. It’s hyped up ibuprofen. If you od’d on it (how, I know not… I used to take 13 at once), it’s not a good idea to take it. All that much anyway. I’m serious, come see me… I can make it better.

I don’t know netheus all that well, but I bet she can give you something much nicer for the pain. Vicoden is the poor man’s morphine.

Actually, Vicodin is hopped up Acetomeniphin, the primary drug ised in Tylenol. And, from what I’ve read on the web, mixing Vicodin with 500mg of ibuprofen is one of the most potent pain relief combos ever. I’m sure that Netheus has some "other" things that would make me feel great — their legality, though …

I can both guarutee their legality, and potency. However, if the vicodin is too strong for you, just take the excedrine. same thing but VERY mild. Aside from that ibuprofen is an anti-inflamitory. The only way that it works is if you have a MUSCLE that is ENFLAMED. The acetomenaphin will actually be what is killing the pain… If you think you are going t die, and you can’t sleep because of the owie, and the dentist keep blowing you off, I can give you something that will at least get you a night’s sleep.

oh— and if it really is an abcess, you would be feeling sick at the same time that your tooth hurt. The nerve would hurt because of the exposure to the air because the tooth would have been eaten away by the poison/ bacteria causing the abcess. Then you would swallow the ick, and it would make you feel sick/ nauseous.
