Headaches and cures?

Was it a virus that caused the headache?
Or tension or stress that should me unwell make?
Was it that osteoarthritic neck?
Or a surfeit of chocolate I'd not held in check?
Or something sinister I'd rather not know?
Let's bring on some remedy-pills by the row
Pink migraleve, NSAIDS no
'Try this' said a friend it helps my pain to go
It vibrated my scalp for a total five minutes
Until I could stand it no more, reached my limits!
My thanks for the offered kind solicitude
But it jangled my brain and did me no good.
I will patiently try Amitryptiline 20
And visit my dentist to see if teeth are guilty!

It's plain to see your noggin
Is well and truly doggin'
Your daily life and walk.
We pray for understandin'
That all the drugs you've crammed in
Won't pop your mental cork!

my teeth were causing trouble
they pained me this weekend
paracetemol and brufen
our stock was near its end
Today I saw the dentist
he tapped and drilled and 'hmmd'
'move your left hand if you feel pain'
i think he hoped I would
it seems the nerves whose residence
are underneath a filling
are furring up like drain pipes
and shrinking- oh how thrilling!
The filling is now washed away in lots of little bits
Another 'thing' is in its place- amazing how it fits.
The nerve is fighting to survive-I did detect the cold
It must all be re-checked when this 'thing' is two months old!
Hows that for a baby on your lap poem. Thankfully the pain has stopped but having a numb mouth brough back memories. Hope you shift your pain soon too.

To follow on: it's not my teeth
But X-ray shows a tissue sheath
Around the sinuses and so
To ENT doc I must go.
