The Dentist Like a God

I took more than the recommended dose of painkillers, so I fell asleep as if I had fainted. However, when I woke up around 7 am., the tooth pain returned all at once. I could not stand the pain, so I took painkillers again and again, but they did not work well. I went to Alkmaar around 1 pm. to visit a dental clinic. I arrived at the destination at 1:30 pm., an hour earlier than my appointment, but I explained that my pain was unbearable. The doctor found a crack in my tooth, then she started drilling and filling as the first trial treatment. It was extremely effective. I truly appreciate her efficient treatment. She must be my God. I stopped by a supermarket and then came back home. I had ham and eggs with instant cup brown rice, but it was quite hard on my weakened tooth. I went to bed around 8 pm., but I felt feverish. I checked my body temperature, and it was 38.1 Celsius. I took some medicine and fell asleep. It was tough, but if I were to compare tooth pain and fever, the former is extremely worse.
