The balance of being healthy and being sick is a very fine line. Something so simple as a tooth can wreck your entire system. Who knew?.......I didn't, until now!!
For about the last month and a half I've been having some pretty insane headaches, loss in appetite, not sleeping, and feeling awful. Fighting through the first month thinking maybe I just had the flu something like that, by was I wrong. The last few weeks have been pretty miserable. I've never really had headaches in my life and to go from that to blinding, wanting to gouge my eyes out....SUCKS!
I finally broke down and thought I'd start at the dentist, because the other option was to go check to see if I had a brain tumor.....a bit dramatic but that's seriously how bad it was.
The verdict....total face infection, stemming from my #11 k-9 tooth being dead. Apparently a few years ago when I fell and chipped that tooth it started to slowly die from the impact. Some steroids, antibiotics, and a scheduled root canal is the remedy!

It's amazing how one little tooth can wreck your entire system. Still have a few endodontist appointments to finish up the dental work but not having a headache for the first time in a month and a half is an incredible feeling!! Grateful!
