ouch...

if i may?

miso soup and millet and dark green leafy veg, if you can eat at all.

hot compresses, Cephyl homeo-aspirin, calcium supplements.

avoid citrus, sweets or fried food. drink lots of fluids, unsweetened green tea, avoid stimulants like theine and caffeine.

acupuncture would be a good choice, if you know a good practitioner.

i went through hell of this type, jaw, lymph and exposed nerves from bad dentistry, and these things have been helpful.

get well soon, we'll miss you...

Thanks, eating isn't a problem, but the false teeth dont fit at the moment, I'm looking like the standard US caricature for british dentistry today. laying with my head down so the fluids drain out has got me to where i can walk around and the pain is knocked back a bit by anti-inflamatorys

unfortunately I've just moved to a new area so don't even have a new doctor yet.

Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.
