is it normal to feel very hot (just my head) and very lethargic in the first trimester?
Or do i have a fever?
I have a wisdom tooth abscess, however, i'm terrified of getting it treated, i had a dental filing before, i didn't know i was pregnant, and had a stress induced miscarriage. Its so strange how my teeth always start playing up at the wrong time! I've had this abscess a while already, now i can't take painkillers and i'm feeling it...but I would rather jump out of a plane than have it treated. I'm going to beg the dentist for antibiotics, but i can't honestly expect to wait 7 months for an operation can I? I could end up with septicemia or something awful i realise this... but i don't think it's safe to have a tooth extractition even without my innate terror while pregnant? Should i wait for something like 26 weeks when theres still a chance the baby will survive if i miscarry?
 
I'm sorry I'm really not sure. I think that those are all questions you should be asking your doctor :hugs:
