"Tick tock"

Yes, yes, I know... Bit hard to compile my next submission when I'm writhing in physical agony every 15 mins(shattered tooth from a couple of weeks ago is, as of yesterday, hitting the stage of uninterrupted and unbearable pain) with fuck-all pain-killers on hand.

Can't concentrate, can't drink or eat... have to keep pausing to exert energy to offset pain signals... infection spreading to nasal cavity/eye... seriously struggling to get the info put together in a concise presentation >_<

I have been through horrible tooth pain recently. Not fun. I wish you a speedy recovery.

argosciv ago

I'm losing sleep over that, on top of the sleep i lose over what's already in my head T_T

Stay off your laptop for a couple days til you recover. I have been told that constantly reading with the print rolling up and down for hours a day will make you dizzy. Did not believe it until it happened. I had to lay down for a whole day, could not get up or walk around. It just happened again yesterday. Take care.

Argosciv - It isn't going to get better. Seek care. You have an abscess setting in, followed by blood poisoning, and then sepsis.

yeah i kinda figured that part lol

cheers for the confirmation though.

If you can get Bactrim, Cipro, amoxicillin, or other broad spectrum antibiotic from amywhere, get it and take it now. Nothing over a year old.

No other antibiotics on hand, found a box of Nyal Cough, Cold & Flu, though.

Took a night tablet(lol, it's ~12:03pm AEDT GMT+10):

Echinacea, White Willow bark, Horseradish, Liquorice, Garlic, Zinc, Valerian(root extract, I presume)

If you have all that stuff on hand, I'd make a mash out of it and pack it around the abscess as much as possible.

argosciv ago

Only thing on hand was a single Roxithromycin, will have a look for something else. Doing well at the moment though.

If you are already at that pain level (sounds 6 or 7/10), probably hearing throbbing or helicopters in your ear, it has turned to an infection at this point. you have about 3 days before it starts turning into some form of pericoronitis, if it hasn't already. At that point septicaemia will become the presenting issue.

I'd start loading the system with as much natural antibiotics as possible - ginger, tumeric, capsaicin. Oil of clove on the infected site is good. Ambesol, Orajel, whiskey.

125 years ago, people died from this.

argosciv ago

Believe me, I understand the severity of it & the significance of it's recurrence(abscesses) in my life.

There will be hell to pay for those responsible, I'll be fine.

I'm hearing helicopters, but, they are indeed helicopters xD I make sure to check on that stuff.

I have plenty of time to have it addressed, so to speak, other matters must be tended to first though.

took uh, something earlier this morning/last night...
