Uhhh, Mathew called them and pulled me in there. It was so bad. He
had to gently restrain me. Still gentle, holding me, and trying to
calm me, but RESTRAINING. My god it hurt so badly. The moron dentist
used cold water to clear out the open socket! My mouth is sensitive
to cold anyhow and he put it right on the exposed nerve and bone!!!
He then proceeded to stuff about a foot of gause saoked in this nasty
tasting stuff in the little hole all with a poky thing like dentists
have. It hurt so so much. It took everything in me not to cry and
scream. Everytime I tried to pull my head away it hurt more and
everytime I wimpered he pushed harder. By the time we were in the car
in the parking lot I was in Mathew's arms shaking and crying. He is
taking me back on Wensday to have it taken out and a new on in if
needed. They told me that I don't need pain pills anymore and that it
doesn't hurt. Bull. Not only that they told me I don't need Vicodin
any more. Hello! Lot they do reading of those damn carts. I'm
allergic to vicodin and codiene. I've been taking Ultracet. Those
people are such morons. I wish I could better stand up to them.
What I really want is to know how to not be afraid of doctors
anymore. It is ok to not like them when they hurt me, to think that
some are incompetent, but I shouldn't start to shake and quiver at
the thought of someone just taking my pulse. I want to not be afraid
anymore. I know that they aren't trying to hurt me and they are just
trying to do the best things they can for me, well assuming I have
insurance they take. I don't want to be afraid anymore. What can I do
to not be so scared anymore. It seems like everytime I get hurt and
have to go in it is a horrible experience. As time goes on I can see
myself getting more and more afraid. I need to be better. What can I
do?
