I will say one thing, even those tapdancin lil old insects wearin spikes can't make me feel unhappy during those 2 hrs. David is right,, set your mind to ignore and do your best to think happy. not that smiling yellow guy either. Get a blue one or a color that relaxes you. I truly wish I could take your pain and let you get a break. Now now, LOL not all of it at one time. Biotene mouth wash seems to help some.
