| Kelly, you don't look like
yourself; kind of haggard, a little down in the dumps, and what's
with the pointy hat?
It's Halloween, Elaine...!!!! Unfortunately, this picture of me
was taken while I had a toothache. Was I ever desperate! Too disoriented
to remember my incantations, my potions all went up in orange smoke,
I wasn't myself!
Did you try calling Dr. Bombay?

I got his nurse. Dr. Bombay was skiing in the Alps. Then I remembered
your toothache
article! I went back and reread it; it was inspiring: "If
Elaine can use homeopathy to cure a toothache, why can't I?"
Then I remembered why. I'm not a homeopath! So, I got in touch with
you.
Yes, I still have the emails:
"Help me or else!--Kelly"
"I know where you live!--Kelly".
Oh Elaine, you kept them! How sweet!
Just call me a sentimental fool!
Do you have his number?
I hear Endora takes a dim view of bad jokes!

Yikes! I'll just proceed with my case then, shall I? Ahem! "My
Toothache", by Kelly Young.
One bright and yet dreary afternoon, a dull pain began in my right
lower molar. Chewing made it worse, so did both hot and cold drinks.
I wasn't surprised as the tooth was decayed and my dentist had suggested
a root canal a while back and being no fan of the dentist, I put
it off.
Kelly, I don't want to say anything but,
I think you're setting a bad example for our adult readers.
I'll give a boring speech at the end about the importance of regular
dental visits along with brushing and flossing and sub-gingival
irrigation with baking soda and peroxide to prevent periodontal
disease, OK Elaine? Elaine? It seems I've put her to sleep; oh well,
I noticed that before the daily tooth pain became severe, I often
had a headache that was made somewhat better when I rubbed my temples.
The episodes started typically in the afternoon, growing steadily
worse through the evening. Usually I felt better in the morning.
After reading the uplifting articles on her own dental nightmares,
I contacted my ever-helpful, potato-chip loving...
...and cheap...
...and cheap homeopath---Hey, I thought you were asleep!
I heard my name mentioned in connection with
potato chips.
I was just saying that you suggested three remedies, that you couldn't
decide among the three, but said to try one and if that didn't work
to try the other; so, I tried the first remedy which gave a little
relief but nothing more, even after taking it more often and plussing
the bottle; so decided to move on to remedy #2 and I could tell
by the second 30c dose that, amazingly, it was working!
Unfortunately, the next day things took a bizarre turn. Part of
the tooth had broken off! It felt funny. There was a sensation of
pressure and an odd pain.
I succussed the bottle and kept taking ______ with only minor relief.
I was quite confused at this point! However, the next morning the
truth came out. The earlier broken-off piece had lodged itself between
the tooth and the gum and was causing the pressure feeling!
Ew.
Exactly! But I didn't know that then! I didn't know what was going
on, I only knew the tooth had broken off. So I kept taking, over
and over again _______ and much to my dismay the pain became worse!
No way!
Yes, way! I felt like I was almost back to square one! Then it
occurred to me that this was an aggravation! Thankfully, from reading
these wonderful pages, I knew how to "zap" (thank you,
Diane Fuller!!!) and things settled down really quickly. Whew!
And by "zap" you are referring
to Diane Fuller's patented Antidoting
Technique?
Yes, exactly. Now here 's the funny thing. When the aggravation
went away, I started probing the area and that was when the broken
piece fell out! I looked at it; it was all decayed! The remedy actually
did dental work! Now I was completely pain free and have been ever
since, proving that seeing your dentist is a complete waste of time.
What about your boring speech?
I already gave it.
