Teppy, sorry you're feeling so miserable, glad you're getting it taken care of. You might try hot compresses on your face for temporary relief of pain - I find it helps me. And it's amazing (to me) that packed sinuses can make your teeth ache - I once had an appointment for a root canal until we realized it was my sinuses causing the pain.
Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

Yeah, the teeth pain is what got me to call the doctor. I thought, well, maybe my teeth are just fucked, but the timing is suspicious w/r/t the sinus pain. The ear infection is just a bonus that probably laid the groundwork for the pain.
If I could roto-root my skull and start with a clean inside, that would be great. (I know that's what the neti pot does in theory, but it hasn't been roto-rooting so well.)

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Or one of those sucker-things from the dentist right into my lungs.

I'm glad you have the good drugs Steph.
Good luck Aims.

Oh wow, really? When I had a tooth infected I tried putting a heat pad against my face and it literally made me scream out loud it made it hurt so much worse. This wouldn't be directly over the infection site so maybe a different case but just the idea makes me cringe.

And yet, people keep telling me that trepanation is not a viable answer.
I hope you feel better soon, Steph.

I'm so glad you went to the doctor, Teppy, because those are things that just don't clear up on their own.

I'm disturbed at how long the ear infection has been going on. I hope in a week I feel like Wonder Woman. Or at least non-ill Teppy.

Hello? Sorry I've been semi- dark for so long. New job doesn't have me sitting in a dark theater waiting for others to do things, like old jobs. So I'm like 3200 posts behind. It's summer now, so a chance to actually be part of the conversation. So I decided to skip ahead. I tried!! But y'all kept talking, and moving the goal posts.
So? What did I miss?

I forgot how utterly disgusting the bowel prep liquid tastes. It starts out okay, but rapidly gets oogy. I am grateful for the tip of mixing it with ginger ale.
