so yep im SOL and cant swallow my own spit
ok so I had a newbie dr give me a fill yesterday and she talked me into getting more of a fill than i wanted i figured well shes the dr so lets try it.....yea bad bad idea!
I have called the drs office 3 times this morning already and boy oh boy am I one upset cookie to deal with right now. During my appointment yesterday I had to drink a little cup of water and i was fine until i got home. As soon as i made it in the door i lost my water. I thought maybe I had somethin stuck and it would be ok in a hour or so.
well 2 hours later (convienently after the doctors office has just closed) I got myself some tea. 2 drinks into it and yep same as water I lost it. After trying everything I could think to drink last night hot and cold nothing has worked. Every 20 mins I get sick because I cannot swollow my own spit even. Calling the doctors office has made no difference today all I hear is well the dr is in surgery and we have no one else avalible to do unfills either so you are going to have to wait til tomorrow or possibly monday.
Seriously? After complaining about being sooo thirsty, im tired, I swear my skin is dry and just feeling like crap i swear im already dehydrated i havent been drinking much lately in the past week anyway and it seems they really dont care up here. Also, the nearest place besides my hospital to get this done is a 5 hour drive OMG!
So i thought i would come on here to vent and see if anyone else has been in this situation and offer me any ideas to try and make it through til tomorrow or monday whenever they feel like getting me in.
thanks in advance for any ideas or responses :)

I agree with Lisa, I would not wait till Monday or even tomorrow if it was me . I would march right into that waiting room and tell them you wont move till you see a doctor and if they refuse I would tell everybody in that waiting room what is going on . I know I would do that because I would be in a pissed off mood already and I would let everybody know it !!
Most docs have a back up doc / nurse that can do unfills.

You probably get swollen after a fill as well some people are worse than other.. I get very swollen after a fill so I can only get fills in small increments and I have to be on liquids the rest of the day and mushy food the next .. untill the swelling goes down
I agree with the everyone else you need to make them see you and my only other suggestion is sucking on popiscles that helped me.

I tried ice chips but cant keep nothin down and still every 15 mins i get sick on my own spit....needless to say im pretty helpless and i guess it dont really matter around here so nothing left to do but wait
