Have you tried orajel? Might take the edge off

[Morticia Mermaid]

Yeah. Only lasts about 20 min before it wears off. Going to try to get into a dentist tomorrow as an emergency. Can't sleep tonight because it hurts so much. Crying because it hurts so much with makes it hurt worse Hardly ate today because I can barely open my mouth without it hurting, hurts to even go through drinking motions

I would definitly try to get in somewhere as an emergency. When you are in this much pain and can barely eat it is time to take action for sure.
Good luck and i hope you feel a lot better soon! Big merhug coming your way <3

[Adalira]

Last night i finally got all the cleaning done, or at least most of it. I have the purifier on full blast in the living room now and i feel a lot better.
Yesterday slept til 1.30 pm! And today 12.30 pm so that shows how much sleep i have been missing lately.
My energy levels are slowly going up again to. Can't wait to feel like myself again!
Thank god i am feeling better cause that means i don't have to kill anyone

Spent since I woke up trying to find a dentist that would take my insurance, state assisted insurance, AND that is also taking new patients. Called insurance company, they gave me a number for a place in town to call, called them and the lady was rude and said that they couldn't see me until next month! Called insurance back, they said they had just called them and told them to expect our call, and that it was an emergency :/ So called them back and the lady was much nicer after insurance called them again. Finally have an appointment on Thursday, was the earliest they could get me in Good news though, they phoned in a Rx for antibiotics as they think from talking over the phone that I have at least one tooth that's abscessed Can pick it up later this afternoon.

Why is it, regarding health in the US, its just a giant run around? But yeah, probably going to call work this afternoon and ask if my roommate can cover my shift (we work together) tomorrow. Other roommate did all the talking for me on the phone because talking hurt so much. One call I had to give verbal permission for them to talk to her, only said 2 or 3 words then spent the next 2 1/2 hours bawling because of how bad it hurt. I've got a high pain tolerance, and it takes a lot for me to cry. So, for this to have me bawling means I am in a LOT of pain

[Adalira]

Trust me it is no better in the Netherlands over here.
I am glad you are getting anti biotics...it sucks though that you have to wait until thursday. I hope the antibiotics will help you with the pain a bit!

[AniaR]

oh sweety we have health care and it's a giant f*cking run around here too. LOL it sucks. Im glad you getting some meds

[PearlieMae]

Well, this is going to make things even harder on artists, performers, and small businesses...

Facebook Will Curtail Unpaid Ads by Brands

[Echidna]

screw facebook seriously.

this.
It's halfway ok for getting into contact with people (preferably those that you know), and a horrible cluster&%$ for anything else.
Since it wasn't designed for business, I guess one cannot complain. :P

Now I'm tempted to make a Facebook group called "Raina's Turkish Fan Club". :P

About Morticia's headdress problem... I saw that particular headdress in person before it was shipped out. I also recognize quite a few of Morticia's trademarks and specific supplies in the video posted by the person claiming they made it themself - Morticia's work is awesome and she does a lot of little things to make her work have unique qualities, and I (thankfully) get to see enough of her awesome work to be able to identify it, even in a blurry video. I even have a headdress Morti gave me that has a lot of the same details, I can point out the exact same things on mine (I did stick my headdress onto a headband - because I got rid of all my hair - but I ALWAYS credit Morticia's work).

Adalira: Mold is seriously no laughing matter - thankfully my mertender is compassionate towards my many allergies and sensitivities, and he ALWAYS makes sure I stay away from anything that smells/looks like it has mold or mildew. Those spores can get in your brain, and that's pretty scary! Is is possible for you to get an inexpensive de-humidifier to keep around you, particularly while you sleep?
Another thing that can help the atmosphere around you is burning PURE beeswax candles (must be actual, pure beeswax, with a pure cotton wick). Beeswax candles help purify the air around you, and the cotton wicks don't have lead in them like regular candles do. I'm not sure what your local availability would be, but I know you can order them online from reputable herb stores (drop me a PM if you need some suppliers). I have a single beeswax candle (almost gone), and it's been a lifesaver for me - I live in a rainforest, and it's always wet, and my room is just an enclosed porch with some carpeting in it... so our windows are always damp, and a big section of the wall had to be replaced because of mold before I even moved in (which means there's a strong possibility there's still mold in the walls). Burning the beeswax candle always eases my breathing I also use things like tea tree oil (I use it in a lot of things, daily, it helps a lot) and make sure to eat kelp regularly so I can get rid of toxins better.
I use a ton of homemade remedies, because of my multiple sensitivities and conditions, so I have a lot of info if you're interested, just drop me a line, I could go on for days



So I guess I'm sick now, my eyes hurt and whenever I get sick, I get a cold sore in my nose... Gross, I know, but at least it's not on my lip anymore - my grandma gave it to me when I was little and now my immune system decided that I get it EVERY time I'm sick (not just once a year any more). Thankfully I managed to attack it with a SUPER-EFFECTIVE remedy as soon as I felt it come on (it's a mixture of pure, real vanilla extract; witch hazel; and tea tree oil), but now I need to wait at least another day or two before I can attempt to go take these photos that I desperately need to take for business/mermaid stuff...

[Vrindavana Starfish]

screw facebook seriously.

Yep. I've quit Facebook twice now. Too many passive aggressive people that I don't care to be "friends" with, too many "friends" that would never in a million years pick up a phone to actually talk to me, and I didn't find it useful for marketing. I know its great marketing for lots of people, but I didn't think it was at all worth the trouble for what I got out of it.

People taking photos online and not giving proper credit. I have had photos cropped, edited, and actually found someone using my face as their profile pic once. I share alot of photos online and I honestly don't mind people sharing them because some are fabulous, but please give 'proper' photo credit. Another mermaid tagged me this morning after finding my photo on another Instagram crediting Fin Fun. I am not sure of the user, but if they are on this forum, please give proper photo credit for this image. I took this image of my daughter. Thanks: Woodland Willow Photography

True- I have a great time with it keeping connected with friends, there are people I'd otherwise never keep up on. They're all over the world, and yet I can connect with them all in one place. But- and that's a BIG but, when anyone talks about having a FB Page for a business, I direct them to the many resources explaining how FB works so they aren't going in thinking they will have reach. FB is a typical huge business, gives not a single damn about almost anything but the money. People forget that, because they're used to the interpersonal connections.

Tooth pain is the worst. Seriously some of the worst pain I've ever had was a tooth that needed a root canal. I lived on 5 advil every 5 hours. It was the only thing that dulled the pain. When they were able to fit me in to get a root canal, I cried tears of joy. I do not wish that pain on anyone and i'm sorry you are going through this.
