What have I got!?

Okay. So I've had some toothache over the past week because of a deep filling , still suffering. Been taking either paracetamol, co-codamol or naproxen for the pain, pretty much on a daily basis.

Probably & most likely totally unrelated, but woke up this morning, excruciating migraine & full on body aches & sore throat. My entire body feels like a pin cushion. No sneezing or coughing but feel hot, yet shivering. It hurts to just move my fingers.

Is it just a cold? I was on my period last week so I've double checked I haven't left a tampon in! I can't believe I felt ok yesterday (apart from my bloody tooth) to absolutely shit, the shittest I've ever felt in a very long time. I do need to go back the dentist but with the way I'm feeling now - the last thing I feel like is laying in the butchers chair 😢

Could you have a dental abscess? Could be a nasty infection, so would recommend getting to the dentist as soon as you can, and to be honest if it it as abscess you'll be begging to get to the dentist as the pain is horrific. Hope you get some answers and feel better soon.

So I rang the drs this morning & spoke to her she said I needed to be seen, but realised I wasn't able to make it to the surgery so arranged a home visit.

Dr came, checked me over & suspected it was Aussie Flu!

She asked if I had had flu before & I told her I honestly can't remember a time when I have felt so bad, like my entire body is broken. I'm just in & out of sleep all day, I'd rather sleep to just not feel the pain.

Tooth is still hurting a bit, but will have to wait until I'm better, another trip to the dentist, something to look forward to 😩
