Toothache Guy

So my wife drove me to the Urgent Care tonight because I've developed some massive infection of my gums back over my wisdom teeth. Pain, swelling, pus, fever - I've covered all the bases.

The doctor prescribed the shock dosage of antibiotics along with some pain meds and numbing stuff for gargling, so I've probably been saved from sepsis.

The most disheartening item was seeing the diagnosis on the patient instruction sheet I had to sign when I left. Toothache.

Really. This is what I've become - a guy who spends Friday night at the Urgent Care for a toothache.
