I’m gonna start tagging these tooth pain rant and toothache rant if you want to skip them lol-
You know I’m starting to think one of the main reasons diabetics have worse dental health is because a lot of dentists refuse to work on diabetics with hard to maintain blood sugar levels (and probably very likely diabetics in general)
Like yeah there is things like chronic dry mouth. There’s also that dentists actually refuse to even just clean or look at our teeth because we are supposedly higher risk for infection. And sure we probably are, but I think you should learn how to work with patients who are higher risk and harder to work with instead of outright denying them services important to their health
You are worried I’ll get an infection? The tooth that has been hurting probably IS infected already. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. Clean and fix my goddamned teeth

I may be a bit quiet on here for a bit, I have been having problems with tooth pain that I need to get figured out. And if anybody’s had a toothache I’m sure you can understand it’s a bit hard to concentrate on writing while it feels like you’re being physically tortured by your face
Small rant under the read more
I’m also at a disadvantage when it comes to getting my teeth looked at, dentists don’t like working on diabetics with hard to maintain blood sugar. Which diabetics have a harder time with dental health to begin with, so you think they’d be more vigilant about diabetics dental care. I just think it’s frustrating, the common response is higher infection rates but what if the tooth that’s hurting is infected? Are diabetics with hard to maintain blood sugar just expected to die from teeth infections and have all their teeth decay because dentists refuse to even clean them?
I’m sorry about the rant on the pony blog but I’ve been in pain the last couple days and I’m pretty frustrated about how the health system works.

Tooth extracted today…
I’m apparently a mutant with more nerves in my mouth than most humans and I broke the dentist chair because I could FEEL the extraction taking place.
Least I didn’t move.
#personal rant#may have to turn it into a fanfic#how many would know lasat teeth?#I see Zeb being a BIG BABBY about tooth pain

I love the fact that I can work as hard as I can manage with a broken tooth and a dying tooth (one on each side, I've been chewing on the cavity for a year) and I still cannot save even $10 towards getting dental treatment (2 impacted wisdom teeth, + tooth broken off under the gum, + bad cavity) because I barely make enough to cover my food and board and the insane energy bill
#I'm just ranting don't mind me it's fine I am continuing to exist as usual I may delete this later bc it's a bit of a bummer to read#I prefer to keep my blogging to fun or otherwise nonserious content because it's supposed to be for decompression no real world drama here#I got into a 3 hour body language study and earned $50 so I spent that as fun money on a couple games during the Steam sale just to#take a break from the constant cycle of getting paid and then immediately saying goodbye to all but about 15 cents#(well it was 1 game Slime Rancher 2 and then 2 expansion packs one for Planet Zoo and another for Cities Skylines long play hours mileage)#I've tried to budget to buy small things like a fan or a toothbrush maybe (mine is 8yrs old and doesn't charge sometimes) but NOPE#let alone stashing away over $2000 for the amount of treatment I need given tooth extractions are $200-$500 each#I use about $50 of groceries a week ($30 USD) sometimes up to $80 if I need to buy some extra toiletries or bonuses like ham/falafel/bread#our last quarterly power bill was $1900 FOR NO REASON even for a winter one#olessan oration#the work I have is HIT/mturk type work which pays amazingly well and I am so grateful because I can't work in a traditional environment due#my inability to sleep/wake on anyone else's schedule and need for engaging work but it also means each worker is basically a contract worke#picking their own hours which is VERY HARD to stick to for me since I may also have ADHD-i but that diagnosis also costs like $2000 in Aus#so I'm doing my best fucking lmao#I have a set minimum hours I want to keep up to and move to full time but I am so exhausted by the constant background noise of#the tooth problems that I burn out very quickly#like the tooth ache isn't that bad#the tooth is actively dying but the pain isn't unbearable it just shits me off at all times#it's bearable most of the time and doesn't affect my sleep unless the temp is cold or something#it's been bad this week tho so I've gone through almost all my ibuprofen managing it#the tooth that broke off broke off earlier in the year and the gum has mostly healed over and the dead root is concealed inside my gums now#that stopped being painful in mid 2021 but when it died it was pretty bad it did stop me sleeping for a couple weeks#Christmas 2021 involved me contemplating ripping the tooth out myself lmao#the nerve eventually died seemingly without an abscess#unless I DID have an abscess but that seems extremely unlikely because abscesses are SEVERE AND HORRIBLE AND LIFE THREATENING#sometimes I can feel the tooth ligament wiggling on its own or I like flex it by accident it's so weird bc the tooth is gone so#the ligament is still holding onto the root but with way less weight#anyway I am eating my mac n cheese n veg with the side that has the missing tooth because the cavity tooth has a big bruise along the gumli#gumline which may be from overzealous brushing (I fill the tooth will temporarily filling putty and it needs to be cleaned well when the#putty falls out)

Welp either I've finally caught covid or I got the flu again. Which sucks, I feel so rough. The only covid tests I have are out of date and only pick up the old variant, so despite it coming up negative, that might mean nothing
On top of all that my wisdom tooth pain has come back full swing after about 2 weeks of barely having any pain, which was glorious. ANNDDD to top it all of I got bad period cramps today
My body is crying and meds aren't working
#ive actually gone over the dosage rate of pills tooo#im honestly so scared im gonna end up with kidney or liver damage#idk which one it is when you take pills every day for months#but i dont want to fuck up any organs#but also im in so much pain that trying to hold off is unbearable#my wisdom tooth pain has been a solid 8 on the pain scale for at least 2 months now#sorry for the rant#moots pls dont give me sympathy#i know im ranting about this publicly on the internet but its only to get it out of my system#but like the flu or covid with cramps and wisdom tooth pain sucks

literally crying waiting in the dentist office because our region wide chef basically acted like i am stupid and unwilling to work after 3 weeks of me being in pain which is now at it's peak
I have a literally open wisdom tooth and a headache on the other side that's also stabbing me open with pain-add to that the brainfog bc uh pain and general nausea
and his first question it to ask me if i hadnt considered taking painkillers
....................
OH NO SORRY YOU OH SO WISE MAN I HADNT CONSIDERED DOING SO FOR THE PAST 2 WEEKS I WILL RETURN TO WORK IMMEDIATELY APOLOGIES YOUR MAJESTY
he was upset i dared leave work AFTER finishing everything for the ppl who had appointments today because I hadnt done enough apparently
only the complicated things no one else can or will do (: which was the only reason i even came in in the first place because otherwise I'd have gone to the doctor asap and left my coworkers to bathe the bs storm out (:
#txts#rant#ii only have pain stretching over my jaw into my head and possibly even bothering my neck lol its fine#just for weeks now and today even painkillers cznt stop it completely qnd i am at my limit#and just the pure inhuman disrespect....wow#i know he doesnt value us who actually do the work and bring in money#but still....wow#i am tired and exhausted bc pain so just let me leave to get it fixed#i am fully expecting my wisdom tooth to be pulled#even if it isnt the source of the pain rn#just to prevent future issues bc...tooth meat is exposed#and has been for a while#and i know its infected around it or near it#tbh i dont think the wisdom tooth itself is the issue#but i also dont think i can convince ppl to keep it longer#best case tbh would be an appointment on monday to get that shit delt with and a week off to recover#i can deal w tooth pain i have been doing that all my life#but the uncertainty and pain combinations is just exhausting now#also the disrespect i have just been shown by regio man rly makes me just wanna take sick leave till i legally cant anymore#need a vacation here lol#crying didnt help the headache and i still wanna like#claw my ear insides out and away#but hey...at least we may make progress sooner rather than later

Got my wisdom teeth out a month ago and the other day it turned into an infection with an abscess. I got some antibiotics from a doctor yesterday but my oral surgeon doesn’t even take calls on weekends, so I have to try to book an appointment tomorrow. Was looking at wisdom teeth subs on Reddit to hopefully find some advice and in usual Reddit fashion all I saw people claiming they were in the worst pain ever (which is probably true for some folks but if you know Reddit medical subs you probably know what I mean. I've seen people on there claim leg cramps are more painful than giving birth lol) but unfortunately there was no advice so I guess I'll just hope it doesn’t get worse
#rant#wisdom teeth#tooth infection#fun#i might come off as rude here#but like I get frequent leg cramps (also known as charlie horses)#was looking for advice on how to prevent them#people just told me I was lying#because according to random redditors it is impossible for leg cramps to rank like a 4 on the pain scale#like maybe some people are more sensitive to pain#but im convinced a lot of those bitches are middle aged dads that scream at the top of their lungs when they stub a tow#some man said he woke up screaming everytime and woke up his wife??#see a doctor or get a divorce that poor woman

This tooth pain is fucking up my pain scale. I’m going “is a headache painkiller worthy? I’m not squirming in agony or moaning in pain, so clearly my ibuprofen could be put to better use”

Hey, Instacart might be price gouging SNAP/WIC items but I am ailing and cant crunch the numbers
made it through to the other side of my pre-grocery store edible. a quart of cookiedough oreo ice cream and a banh mi later I am still in tooth pain. its like a fourth wall moment in my sapience. like the tooth pain is so intense and present that lidocaine applied directly to it doesnt make it go away; the numbing agent tinges the pain a different color to a less intense hue. there's nagging pain that I feel in joints that goes away with rest and elevation but this is literally a nerve exposed to the air or something. fuck insurance companies also for make vision and dental separate actually. and fuck instacart for price gouging SNAP eligible foods
[context in alt text]
i actually got so mad at price gouging actually I did algebra carte blanche in the store aisles while having deeply upsetting tooth/nerve pain

I got my wisdom teeth SURGICALLY removed. My dad is a total piece of shit. Instead of comforting me, he laughed at my swollen face, asking, "Does it still hurt?" You stupid ignorant MOTHERFUCKER if you KNEW how self-conscious it makes me feel going out looking like a God damn BOTCHED surgery experiment. I wish my dad was a mute. Like, please, God take away his voice because all he does is spread cruelty! I hate that man. He is so blind and emotionally unintelligent that it's sickening. I HATE MY DAD!!!!!!
