All is well.

The root canal went fine. In fact it wasn't painful at all. My appointment was at 8.30am today and I was numbed up by 8.32am. In fact, it didn't wear off completely until about 3.45pm this afternoon.

The pain now is minimal at worst. I took two Aleve just because I knew it would be hurting some. Now I can't feel any pain except when I put some pressure on the tooth.

All in all, a very NON-traumatic experience. I don't see why everyone was telling me how painful and horrid root canals are. They aren't. At least not in my experience now. It was just like getting a filling.

More interesting posts soon to come I hope.
