That's me whining. I am in sooooo much pain today from the root canal. I guess it's worse the 2nd day. I can barely open my mouth! :blink: I don't think I'll be eating anything today. :unsure:
 
jello and applesauce is the best thing I found when Ive had dental procedures. I have never had a root canal but I had to have one pulled and the root was twisted and the dentist could not get it out. He pulled and pulled and it broke and he thought he was going to have to cut it out. It did finally come out but it caused ALOT of swelling and bruising. My whole right side of my face was bruised for like three or four weeks!!
 
Oh - at least get a shake :) That'll give you a little bit of fun to do with your mouth even if you don't have to chew, etc. I hope you get to feeling better quickly!

Make sure you're taking pain meds on time! That will definitely help - don't try to be strong ROFL
 
Unfortunately, I can only take Advil during the day because I'm home with the kiddos. :( I'm taking the meds at night to help me sleep.
 
I am SO sorry that you are having so much pain! I understand about the meds...I was the same way. Thankfully the dentist did prescribe me some prescription strength motrin (think it was motrin anyway) to take during the day and it did help. I'd suggest calling the dentist and letting them know how much pain you are in and asking for a med that won't make you loopy.
