Last fall I was bitten by a Jumping Spider—here is where I blogged about it

Nasty creature.

Anyway, I gradually healed up. Life went on.

Then a new thing occurred…teeth (not just tooth pain) but random floating moving pain and bone pain involving my teeth.
Miserable.

I found it hard to concentrate. Then I found myself only doing what was necessary because of the pain.
I went to the dentist, talked with my medical doctor…had a new filling put in, took Advil, hot packs/cold packs; you name it.

Gradually my mouth felt like it was breaking apart tiny bit by tiny bit.

Finally, it has been decided the pain is a result— a sort of residue, of the ulceration and a weird-like tissue death, from the spider bite.

The whole thing rather caused me to think way too loudly —mainly at night when trying to sleep 🙂

BUT!
At least I know now.
At least I can rest and not have my thoughts gather and disappear down a rabbit hole.

I can go forward into my new normal

Accepting the new creation in my body

Where pain didn’t exist before

It isn’t anything that I can’t live with, now that I understand it

It can’t break me. It is just the new normal.
