I remember the night before my two day Royal College Specialty Medical exams, having a molar fracture while biting on a piece of bone hidden inside my BBQ hamberger. I was in misery that night despite taking pain killers, not eating anything because of the painful tooth since that first bite, and I was pretty bleary-eyed when I did the written portion of my exams the next day having only fitfully slept.
I hustled out earlier than anyone else in the exam room, got to my dentist who put in a new filling after freezing my mouth early that evening. Hours later I realized that my mouth was still frozen after the dental block, and I couldn't drink or eat anything without it falling out of my mouth until my face thawed out very late that night.
I did actually pretty okay on the oral exam and the day's previous written exam; I was in so much pain and dental misery that I had forgetten to be worried and anxious about perhaps the most important exams of my life.
Thankfully it seems to be only on the exterior, as I'm not getting any discomfort from the nerves. I still hope I can get it fixed ASAP, because this is uncomfortable.
