my dentist fears!!!

Now before I tell you my tale of woe i have to say I LOVE LOVE LOVE my dentist...he's the best, however....I swear every time i go in there i come out in PAIN!!!! I had a tooth that was causing a bit of pain so I call my dentist and he gets me in right away, on his half day no less, looks at my tooth and says no problem we need to put a filling in. (GREAT, NOT!!!) So he numbs me up and right there i knew something wasn't right. It was a lot more painful than normal Lidocain. But i don't say anything cuz he's doing me a favor, he does his thing and 20 minutes later I'm out of there. Knew filling and as numb as can be. An hour later I'm balling my eyes out ( and OK lets face it I'm a baby, wimp, ete...always have been always will be!) So i call up my dentist, catch him as he's leaving and tell him I'm in really bad pain...long story short....he accidently hit a nerve while injecting the lidocain...tells me to take ibuprofen and it should feel better in a couple of days?????????? did i tell you I'm a baby, wimp, ete...holy crap the whole left side of my face, jaw and even sinus is still throbbing. I'm sucking it up but i think the next time I have a tooth with a bit of pain I'll just deal with the bit of pain!!!!!
