Guest guest Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 On Thursday of last week around mid afternoon, my tooth just felt like it exploded. The pain was pretty intense. I mean this just happened out of nowhere. Nothing leading up to it that I am aware of. I tried clove oil by hanging my head upside down and having my wife put in several drops. Well she went a tad overboard and pumped in about 5 or 6 drops all of which ended up on the roof of my mouth and into my nose. Whoooeeee, does that burn. Talk about dumping mucus in a hurry. I highly recommend that nobody ever try this. Of course, after the burning left my nose was somewhat numb but the tooth still hurt like bloody blazes. I did not sleep at all very well this night. Friday morning my whole head felt like it was going to explode. I was in agony. I was cold and could not get warm, my upper jaw hurt and that pain radiated all the way up to top of my head on the right hand side. To top it off I was also going through caffeine withdrawals which always effect me on the left side right behind my left eye. I decided I wanted to keep my tooth as long as possible so I decided on fasting. I ate nothing all of Friday and drank only water with lemon. I did not sleep well this night either but I did sleep better than the night before. Saturday, I ate nothing again, only drinking distilled water with lemon added. My jaw and right side of my head still hurt a lot but had eased some. I noticed some swelling on the gum just above the tooth. The caffeine withdrawals were still there but were also easing. I slept quite good that night. Sunday, I again ate nothing only drinking my water with lemon. I actually felt great. I had tons of energy but my head still hurt. I did pretty good with all of this so far. I found it quite interesting that I actually had no desire to eat anything. Lots of things looked yummy and smelled delicious but my body just was not into eating. I slept really good this night. Monday I awoke with little pain anywhere in my head. Mostly the tooth and gum were still slightly painful. I had enormous amounts of energy. I really felt wonderful but still had no desire to eat. I continued with only water and lemon. However, around 6 pm I got this very sudden burning, stabbing pain in my stomach and the very urgent feeling of throwing up. This lasted for about two hours. I actually had the dry heaves for awhile and considering I was drinking lots of water I was amazed that nothing came up. Sure had a lot of saliva though. Sheeesh, I didn't think those salivary glands could pump out that much saliva that quickly. Amazing. Around 8 pm I was feeling pretty good again with no pain in the stomach and very little in the tooth. Slept really well that night as well. Today, I awoke feeling very good, still some pain in the gum but not much. Just enough to let me know it is still there. I have no desire to eat as yet so will keep this up as long as is needed. My goal is to heal this tooth so I can keep it without losing it. After all, our bodies are perfect and know exactly what they need to do to heal themselves if we only will allow them to do so. Will keep you updated as more unfolds. One of the nice bonuses of this is I am losing a bit of weight. Kind of nice. -- Peace be with you, all.

If I feel like I have a ton of energy then I am going to be doing something. Otherwise, I am, for the most part, just taking it easy. But then I am always taking it easy. ;-) There is no better way to take life. -- Peace be with you, .

Just let nature do what nature does best, in this case the body knows exactly what it needs to do much better than I. -- Peace be with you, Don " Quai " Eitner " Spirit sleeps in the mineral, breathes in the vegetable, dreams in the animal and wakes in man.
