Okay so I have a toothache. it's not strong, but it is enough for me to take a mouth numbing agent called orajel for it. It really didn't work at all. It did make my saliva VERY viscous (sticky and thick) and it kept almost making me gag, and still is.

I didn't vomit, but I have had several instances in which my throat acted like the final seconds before vomiting - the panic to keep swallowing. My stomach feels weird, but I'm not nauseated at all. I garguled an ounce of water to clear my throat, and that worked for a few, but when i reapplied the Orajel, it made my mouth sticky again. Water isn't clearing my throat anymore. I really thought I was gonna vomit even thought I wasn't nauseated.

It sucks because my tooth is starting to hurt more and more. The pain is spreading to my ear, half of my face and under my jawbone. I have some Ibuprofen 200mg tabs, but after my near miss vomiting situation, I can't risk it upsetting my stomach forreal. I was supposed to hang out with my friends, something I RARELY do, but then my tooth acted up. I can't enjoy life. This is why I haven't shelved my suicide plans.
