Cavities suck! I have a really bad cavity...again. So I go to the dentist and he tells me I not only havea cavity, but that the root is infected too. So he has to drill the cavity pretty deep, to the root. Then he has to put a shot of medicine in it to fix the infection. He has to do it once a week for a few weeks. The thing about that is, he put three shots of novocaine in my mouth and it still hurt my tooth. Gas is not used in Japan that much apparently. So he let me go home drooling on myself with prescriptions for a few anti-biotics and some pain killers. In hopes the infection would heal a little by thursday so it would hurt a little less. So the novocaine wears off by 11 last night...Out of nowhere I got a sharp pain that I still have now, at 843am. I had not one minute of sleep last night. The pain killers do not work. They dont even make me drowsy like normal ones would. They suck, and so does this cavity...
