Damnit.
Sick. Sick enough I skipped all my classes today except Physics, which I have an exam in Wednesday. Argh.
To top it off, my right wisdom tooth is coming in. At an angle, as predicted. Needless to say, it hurts. I need to get it taken care of more immediately than I'd thought I would now. I'd hoped to get the root canals done first, considering I can stick the end of my pinky into the hole in the one tooth. Fortunately for me, it doesn't hurt any unless I get food in it.
Except I don't have the money. My insurance covers up to 80% of whatever I need done, but I don't really have the money to cover the leftover. And I'd need to find a sedation dentist. I can't deal with being awake for procedures. I've needed two shots of novacaine since I was seven, and yet somehow they never believe me when I tell them I will. Plus the anxiety of a person I don't know being that close to me for that long is awful- sometimes I need breaks when I get my teeth cleaned, and they can't exactly do that when extracting teeth or drilling the hell out of your enamel. I'd rather just be out and have them wake me up when it's over.
Which is another problem- I'd have to schedule it so my parents or brother could come get me afterwards. Obnoxious.
