PAIN

I've got a cold sore in the corner where my bottom lip meets my gums. HURTS SO BAD! I am actually in more pain than I am comfortable being in. Makes me feel like a wuss. But I can't eat. I'm really hungry and I can't eat. (It doesn't really hurt when I just sit here and don't use my mouth, but that's not possible while eating). I guess it's good for the old diet though. I even put on my sore mouth medicine (basically like the stuff they give you at the dentist before they give you the needle, just really mild numbing stuff). Didn't work at all. boo hoo. I guess I'll drink more tea.

There's this mouthwash you can get called "Sterisol" that is supposed to help canker sores. Works for me.
