TOOTHACHE

yep. i've been having the toothache for almost two days now. But, i was reluctant to go and see a dentist. For my stubbornness, i forced myself to bite the food slowly and carefully. And out of my stubbornness as well, i was forced to put 'gambir sarawak' at the area that hurts.
What is "gambir sarawak?"
I quote from the phamplet : "Gambir Sarawak is a latex from gambir tree that can onlybe found in Sarawak thick forest that is somewhere in Long Panai, Marudi."

Sarawak's Gambir useful for:
1) Toothache
2) Nail pointed striked
3) Bitten by poisonous animal or insect (centipede, bees, scorpions)
4) Cance by fish sting that is poisonous.

And last night, i tried to put some into my mouth. It was the most horrible taste that i have ever tasted! Bitter (which is very strong) , minty and somewhat mual. I'm not sure how to describe it.But it made my throat dry as i didn't want to swallow the flowing saliva. I had to go to the washbasin for every five seconds. And i felt like throwing up each time i gurgled. It made the whole mouth kebas.And tell you, i vowed not to ever let the 'gambir sarawak' in my mouth, ever!I promised myself, next time i'll go straight to the dentist. This was a life-lesson that i learnt yesterday. Go and see the dentist if you have toothache.
