Today, I have a tooth infection that's spread to my jaw and ear. It hurts so badly that I'm practically in tears. Today's also the day I found out I'm allergic to the medication I was prescribed. Everything hurts, I'm covered in hives, and I can't stop throwing up. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, I got all four of my wisdom teeth taken out. I happen to be allergic to all types of pain medication. FML
Racketeering
Today, I woke up to the most excruciating pain in my jaw. No dentist that takes my insurance has any openings, and the one doctor I can see to get antibiotics isn’t in. FML
Today, I missed my dentist appointment. I couldn't attend, because I was too busy puking my guts up due to a bad reaction to the pain medication I'm taking for my toothache. FML
Can't win
Today, I came down with painful sores in my mouth, just after having gotten over a cold. Apparently I'm allergic to the cough drops I've been eating for the past week to make myself feel better. FML
Circling the drain
Today, after suffering probably my worst night of appendicitis, which consisted of vomiting, diarrhea, and going to the doctor, starving, only to find out a couple of hours later in the hospital ER that I'm allergic to penicillin and close to dying. Again. FML
Today, I've been sick with both a chest cold and a sore throat. As a result, I've also been dehydrated, causing me to have a headache. Whenever I cough, I feel like my throat is being ripped apart and my head is about to explode. FML
Rip it up and start again
Today, I found out I'm allergic to the pills my doctor prescribed for coughing, which I really need because I ripped a muscle in my stomach. Now my whole upper body is covered in a terrible itchy rash. I also found out it will last for at least another week. FML
Today, I have an ear infection. The pain from it radiates from my ear all the way down the left side of my face, so my doctor prescribed me something that makes half of my face numb and pretty much unusable. Tomorrow, I have to give a presentation on strokes for my med class. Go figure. FML
Waiting for a Xmas miracle
Today, I'm in agony. I can't eat or drink anything without being in pain, including water. Doctors don't know what's wrong with me, and can only prescribe me painkillers I can only take 3 times a day. FML
Pink eye, white throat
Today, I'd finally had enough of feeling awful and went to urgent care. As it turns out, the reason my throat was sore was because I have a sinus infection. The doctor explained my nose is producing pus, and that's what I'm swallowing and coughing up. Yuck. I also have pink eye on top of that. FML

That sucks, OP. I have dentinogenesis imperfecta, so I know the pain. Talk to your doc about getting different meds. Hope you feel better soon!

To all those commenters who never went to medical school: giving medical/pharmacology advice to posters is wrong on so many levels. What may have been effective for you, may NOT be effective for others, even fatal., especially for someone who is has allergic reactions to medications. Please consider this in the future.

I don't think the problem is them, so much as the person who actually takes medical advice from people on a website.

I had similar issues... Might you have TMJ? - It's a jaw issue. I would have it all looked at by professionals... Need to go to an ear/ nose/ throat (ENT) doctor... Then you'll also need to go to a dentist... Get your wisdom teeth pulled and that cleared up my TMJ... Might help you. I had chronic ear & tooth infections... The pain is horrendous!! Get well soon!!
