Hi everyone,for the last 6 days have had the worst"toothache or sinus infection" and after sitting at an area meeting last night and hour from my home,my head rippin off,I went to dentist today. Tried to ride it out...Right choice,Doc said had bad infection and the root was split,yanked that baby out!! ahhh!With allergies at times its hard for me to tell if its my teeth or sinus's.I live in Hudson Valley New York and we are noted for high pollen counts.Anyway last night I told my wife that I am going to appreciate so much when the pain is gone that I am able to handle it now(strange but been here before)..Sitting here ,just a slight ache in my jaw where the molar used to be,how many times I have told myself "and this too shall pass,and the strength I get from mentally working something out.Kind of like recovery,we get the pain,we learn ways to handle it and then we take steps to alleviate the pain...Well anyway,welcome to the weekend enjoy each day to its fullest ,I know my saturday meeting tomorrow will be much more relaxing than last weeks!!talk to you later.

I know what you mean about sinus infections masquerading as tooth pain. I'll never forget the first time it happened to me....I had a horrible toothache, went to the dentist who said the teeth were fine but had a helluva sinus infections. go figure.
