I'm so ****ing uncomfortable. I'm shaking my leg rubbing my legs with my hands. It's so uncomfortable. I don't know if my tooth pain is causing it. or not. I flipped out at my son this morning because he was just hanging out instead of helping us get ready to go to co-op. I'm confused and angry. Life feels too real and I don't have my headphones. I think I may cave and take the higher level of zyprexa that they're going to offer. This is no fun. But the higher dose makes me feel like this and twitchy at night. I'm glad I chose to come to co-op because I know I would have hurt myself if I was home and who would know how paranoid I would have got. Time is so slow. this sucks.

Sorry you're struggling.

When I cracked a tooth, I got an earache and a massive headache. It really messed with me mentally.

Can your dentist prescribe you something?

Medicaid doesn't pay for dentists so I'm SOL.

It was a good decision to go to the co-op.
Sorry you are in such discomfort.
Please stay safe.

I'm sorry you're having a tough time and are having to deal with pain on top of that. Are there any dentists or dental clinics in your town that offer payment plans or offer low cost assistance? I hope you feel better soon. Please stay safe.

i hope you can find a dental place that can help you.

What's wrong with the tooth though? Sometimes health insurance will actually cover a dental procedure depending on what needs to be done. Of course you'll need to see a dentist first and will have to pay for the initial appt, but if you know the tooth needs to be pulled (for example), then Medicaid might cover at least part of it since it could be classified as "surgery".

I know this because I had my health insurance pay for my wisdom teeth removal. They called it "surgery", so it was a "medical procedure" instead of a dental procedure.

Okay I'll look into that too. I'm hoping the pain will just go away like it has in the passed. I've never had a tooth pulled so it's scary but I can't eat or drink with it.

I did a quick goggle.... There are 3 dental schools in your area.

Have you tried a hot shower to help with the legs?

Feel better
