Thank you guys, I admit I am terrified...but cannot see dr until Dec 2nd...and yes it hurts..I touch tooth and want to jump up in pain.

Based on this, its probably an abcess. Question. Does in hurt when you lay down flat? As is, when your sleeping with only 1 pillow, when you wake does it throb? This is a sure sign of an abscess. If so, sleep in a more upright position with 2 or 3 pillows.

Thank you all. as the day of my appointment has been coming closer..I have been getting more and more nervous..then today something weird happened..My dog got lose, ran out into street, I go after her and I realized I could of been hit...

Me and doggy are fine, but at the time it never occurred to me that my life could of ending in like a second flat..
