Was thinking about this, how're you going?

Thank you for staying in touch! I've yet to try your suggestion yet, though I sent my fantastic other half to get some wax from a local heath foods store so it's on my list.

At the moment, I've learned to ease flare-ups by pressing inwards on the tooth, holding it there for a minute or two, and taking a few open mouth breaths to even out the temperature, and the pain seems to go away for a bit!

I'll let you know if I have to break out the bumbley boi cure!
