Damn my luck, got better from last week when I got sick and out of nowhere one of my teeth started to hurt like hell at 2am last night, I couldn't even sleep because of the pain.
I had to call to a pharmacy at that time and ask them to deliver some pain killers, I woke up my mom with all the noise and later on the moaning and she's mad as hell with me.
I was able to sleep after the pain killer took effect but I'm pretty sure I've been teeth grinding while asleep and who knows how hard I've been doing it because I finally woke up and my face is all swelled up... at least nothing hurts anymore. Worst part is that I just can't go to the dentist, my healthcare doesn't cover dental emergencies like that, so I had to call and ask for a priority appointment and it's not up until 2pm... I hope it's no big deal and to get over with this asap.
UPDATE: Turns out I made a rather big dent on a tooth while bruxing and it got infected... my defenses are still low because of last week or something like that so I gotta take antibiotics and stuff so that on Monday the dentist can work on that tooth to fix everything up. He said that there should be no pain from now on, or that at least it should be lower and manageable with medication. Pain comes and goes but definitely not as bad as last night, it's just the swelling that's really uncomfortable.
