Saturday I decided to have a stir fry. Was really enjoying it when suddenly I CRUNCHED on something, and it wasn't the bean sprouts! Spat out the foreign object & examined it. It turned out to be a filling. No aching tooth, so I investigated with my tongue, and Ow! Not my tooth - no - that didn't hurt at all, but I cut my tongue on the sharp edge of what was left of the tooth. Couldn't enjoy the rest of my dinner because I kept tasting blood!

Since then I haven't been able to stop myself poking my tongue into the cavity all the time. I'm like a little kid! I tell myself to 'Leave It Alone!!, but it's compulsive, I just can't stop doing it. I'm beginning to think I must be a self harmer.

Phoned the dentist this morning, and they can't fit me in till mid December. My poor tongue's gonna be in shreds by then!
