[QUOTE="Annb, post: 2334016, member: 25851"] I have had a lot of sleep today because I have had to take several (half) doses of Co-codamol. I have the worst toothache I have ever had. I am used to pain and so only take Co-codamol when I can barely move, and never a full dose. This time I have been swithering - should I take 2 tablets? Or make do with just one? So far, just one. It takes the edge off the pain, but it does make me sleep a lot. I think the problem is that I broke a tooth earlier in the week but just left it and thought it would be OK (dentists will only deal with emergencies at present) because it wasn't painful. Yesterday it started niggling and I tried to get an appointment, but will have to phone on Monday for an on-the-day appointment. Today, it has become something of an emergency, but the practice is closed. I could phone NHS 24 and might be able to get a real emergency appointment, but I'm not bleeding, so I doubt it is sufficiently urgent to call a dentist in to open the surgery. No food at all today. Younger son has taken the big container of stewed beef but says there's nothing wrong with it so he might doctor it up and have a family meal from it and forget about the dogs. He also took a big, red velvet cake which I made for the event I couldn't take it to right at the beginning of the lockdown. So now I have a box of cupcakes in the big freezer! Yay!! Also noticed a pile of cartons labelled with some kind of beef label. Edit: The pain is no longer around the tooth itself but has spread from the bottom jaw to include the upper jaw and cheekbone. Also have an ulcer on the underside of my tongue. Never had an ulcer there before. [/QUOTE]
