So I was really hoping one of you guys jumped in and said "Don't do that! Stop! Never do that" but no.
Anyone remember that scene from Step Brothers where Dale runs in the parents room and yells "what a terrible idea! Why did you let us do that! There's blood everywhere!"?
Yeah, I'm living that scene right now.
I should have taken it as a sign when I finally found my bag of tweezers, scissors and forceps only for it to spill it's entire contents as soon as I picked it up. Nope, too much pain for that to stop me. Fortunately I did have a pair of curved forceps that were perfect for the job.
Good news is that I got it pulled out. Bad news is that I'm pretty sure part of it is broken off in the bone. So pain much better, one less thing for the dentist to overcharge me for and I feel a little proud of myself for actually doing it and not chickening out or passing out lol. I did get a little woozy though.
Bad news is I gotta go to the dentist for the rest. Assuming my insurance covers dental that is. If not there's no way I'll be able to afford it and I'll have to deal with as is. At least it feels soooooooooo much better now.
