Day 232 "In A Lot Of Pain The Last Five Days"

I haven't been on the computer the last five days because I've been in a lot of pain.  I had been to the Dentist back in October and new that I had a cavity.  I was told the earliest it could be taken care of was on New Year's Eve.  Well, I had to cancel that appointment because my Uncle had chemotherapy that same day and there was nobody to take him.  Well, I figured I would just reschedule and everything would be alright.

Five days ago out of the blue I started getting terrible pain where the cavity is.  I left it go for two days thinking it would go away.  No luck with that so I tried calling my Dentist and because I go to a clinic where a lot of poor people go, myself included, it's extremely hard to get an appointment let alone even talking talking to a live person.  Usually you are asked to leave your name, number, and birth date and they'll call you back.  Well I did that and of course nobody ever called me back so I decided to go to the local ER.  The doctor I had gave me an antibiotic for ten days, take some ibuprofen, and get an appointment with the Dentist.

Besides feeling sick and being in a lot of pain my mood has been very down.  I have been very edgy and can snap on a moments notice.  I've been very negative about myself and all I've wanted to do is be in bed.  Even right now I don't really know what the point is in me typing this because I'm going to get nothing out of it.  I just feel like everything I do is pointless.
