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.
Today, I got all four of my wisdom teeth taken out. I happen to be allergic to all types of pain medication. FML
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
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
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
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
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
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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I am not a doctor but suggest you inform the one who prescribed your medication what you shared with us. Sorry you are in so much pain. Good luck.

I'm sorry OP. FYL. Sleep, and oranges numbing. That is magic right there.

Unless your airway is threatened, this is not something you need to go to the hospital for. You need to go to a dentist and get the tooth taken out. An antibiotic will not fix the problem because the infection is in the tooth, where the blood vessels have necrosed, preventing the antibiotic from being able to solve the problem, permanently. This is why you need to brush/floss/go to the dentist regularly and going to the ER for this stuff just raises the cost of healthcare for everyone...

It is called a toothbrush... They sell them at your local hillbilly Walmart or as they say it in your part if the country... Da Whal-Mard

I don't understand how people can say "you deserved this", that's just rude on their part

How is that rude? You know infections are caused by cavities, right? Which are caused by poor or lack of dental hygiene. Tooth infections (that do NOT start from another source) are completely preventable by brushing and flossing.
