Toothache's making me very depressed :-(

So,
I had a tooth out exactly 12 days ago today. The dentist spent a good 45 minutes trying to get it out, pulling so hard it was hurting my jaw, it was very traumatic I'm not good with dentists at the best of times, I was getting very bad toothache before having the tooth out and I thought having it out would stop the pain.. How wrong I was, since the Tuesday I had it out I have been in constant pain, turns out I now have an infection and he's put me on antibiotics (for the second time in 3 weeks) I just feel like the pain is never going to go away, I'm having to miss work some days because the pain is so bad.. I just can't seem to see a way out I'm down all the time, never want too do anything or go anywhere and I'm hardly eating because everytime I do it hurts.. I've lost half a stone already, now down too just under 6st .. Don't know what to do :-(

So sorry to hear you are still in pain, it is so depressing when you can't see the end in sight. I have no good advice except keep taking pain killers and go back if you are still in pain. You poor thing Wine
