Ugh Blarg

So I am twenty four years old and I had a root canal last week and am still going through it. Today the dentist did more drilling and then put a temporary crown on and then in two weeks I go in for the permanent crown. What the hell! I thought root canals and crowns were for old people so why am I dishing out $520 so far for all of this mess. It just seems ridiculous I am young and take pretty good care of my teeth and what about my husbands so called wonderful insurance why aren't they paying more? I have never had to deal with something like this before so yes I am a little frustrated, but will be better tomorrow. The pain medicine they gave me makes me very sick so I stopped taking it about a week ago and just dealt with the pain, If anybody reads this blog can you answer me why do I get violently ill after having dental work done?
