2 am really bites

This jaw pain in the middle of the night game is really crappy and I have had enough. I am one who can get by on very limited amounts of sleep...it is what allows me to get so much done and still function, but even I can't keep up with this!

Almost every night for two weeks I am up between 1 and 2 am for hours! Hell on Monday night, I came home from work and never went to sleep because as soon as I laid down to..BOOM PAIN! So I have lost an entire night..the WHOLE night...not even 10 minutes of sleep, plus all of the nights where I only get 3-4 hours. I am really quite over this.

I began the new antibiotic, I need to take it every 8 hours, not very convenient given sometimes that falls on a time I *should* be sleeping, but I will try anything because I am desperate.

So here I sit, just swigged back a new pain pill, and hope that I can fall back asleep in the next hour so I can get 4 hours of sleep. Damn pain...GO AWAY!

Gosh, what a whiner you are! It is only a "little" gum infection:) We'll just cut off the head and solve the pain issue:)

I am so sorry that you are still in pain! I so hope the new meds work and work FAST! I am sure it is making every thing else easy to get done too!

But just think, with all this pain now, by the time you have the baby, that pain will feel more like a slight discomfort:)

Some day(soon I hope) the pain will go away(or at least lessen)
