Kelly Tells The Tooth!-- Kelly Young, Elaine Lewis, CHom |
 |
|||
| Well, Kelly, what do you have for us today? A toothache! Wait a minute, didn't you have a toothache last month? Yes!!!! And I got bumped for Caralyn's father! Kelly, there's something you have to understand about homeopathy: everyone likes Caralyn's father! What? Caralyn's father is very popular; he generates a lot of mail. For instance, here's a letter now: "Dear Elaine, brilliant!--Caralyn" Elaine... And another thing you have to understand about homeopathy, Kelly, and that is: I have to be able to come up with a song that has something to do with the topic in my capacity as hpathy.com's designated DJ, and as far as I know, no one has ever written a song about a toothache! Didn't Ray Charles do a song called "Tell The Tooth"? That was "Tell The Truth", Kelly! Didn't Marvin and Tammy do "It Takes Tooth"? That was "It Takes Two!" Well, I can't help you! Just give your case Kelly..... Right. So, I've got a great case for you this month Elaine! Unh-huh... I'm so excited because, as you know, my teeth have been bothering me for a long while now. Mmm-hmmm..... And as you also know, I'm a wimp when it comes to seeing the dentist- which I managed to avoid thanks to you!! Yes, you've done a lot for the
cause of proper dental care. The other two were the upper left (behind a failed implant area) and the lower molars. I had tried rhus tox but it hadn't helped at all. God this is interesting.... And that's probably not good, right? Yes! Not good! It
would start as a dull ache and by the time I went to bed, throbbing
pain that was unbearable! The whole left side of my face ached horribly!
I felt the pain in the roots and thought that I had an infection.
By morning, the pain would be diminished, my cheek would feel swollen
(though it wasn't) and the whole thing would repeat itself that
night. Cheer up, Kelly, we'll just use that as next month's case! It's amazing the role I play at hpathy; well, anything for science! So anyway, that was when I got in touch with you, Elaine! Really? I must have been asleep,
what did I say? Oh. Remember? sensitive teeth and
gums worse chewing No, there's more:
When does it stop? Now, it stops now! And the winners are.....
And then you said, "One of these better work cuz we have an ezine to get out!" I'm such a romantic! So, I tried Cham. 30C and here's what happened: No pain that night!
hurray!! However, I didn't sleep all that well. I suspected that
I was grinding my teeth or at the very least, clenching while asleep. Well ex-cuuuuuuse me! I did notice a very small improvement, though... Aha! - less tension in my jaw. But after the second dose, I developed a sore on the inside, back left of my tongue. The teeth felt okay (not great but not bad either) I took a 3rd dose later that day and the tension in my jaw returned, the sore was irritating and painful and my tongue felt swollen. Picky, picky, picky! My back, which had
also been bothering me a little, was not so great (tension there
too) and I didn't sleep well that night. I decided to zap the sulphur
and take a look at your list of remedies again. And I suppose that's my fault
too! But you do seem to be looking at me! I took Chamomilla and finally fell asleep. My jaws felt achy and tired in the morning and I still had "pangs" of pain shooting through my gums/teeth. I also had another painful sore inside my lower lip, just above the tooth line. My symptom list: Yeesh! Practicing dentistry isn't easy! I was very worried
at this point as the pain was really bad and I worried about an
abscess. I actually resorted to an extra strength tylenol before
going to bed! When is this story going to take a turn for the better? Right now! You told me to take _____________. I told you to take _______________? Yes, you told me to take ____________! And what happened? I got better! Oh. __________________________________________________ If anybody knows the remedy, write to Elaine at LEWRA@aol.com, the answer will be in next month's ezine. |
