Shooting pain when chewing after filling, about to go overseas!?

[MegHS7]

I had several fillings done yesterday, some new, some replacements.  I had more severe soreness than after previous fillings so that was a bit concerning at first... but I kept in mind that I had considerable work done on the left side (3 fillings, 2 on the bottom and one rather deep).  However I did manage a good nights sleep and woke with no pain...

But I am experiencing very severe shooting pains when eating on that side (it sort of fells like the fillings not there for a second and I'm chomping down on exposed sore teeth?) coupled with generally annoying soreness throughout the day.

I am really concered because A) I am going on a very long holiday of a lifetime in just a few days, 2) I am due for another filling replacement on the other side before I go and am worried I won't have a side left to chew on!

I would really appreciate a best case / worst case senario here so I can do my best to avoid pain while on holiday.

Thanks.

Thanks, already booked in as I hope that will fix things up...  I suppose the upcoming trip has me a bit more nervous than usual so I am seeking advice from all sources :)  

My concern is the intensity of pain is due to more than just a 'high filling' and I don't want to have such pain as I head into the culinary capital of the world!  

Would appreciate any and all thoughts or previous experiences.

Going back to your dentist to have more occlusal adjustment is advised.
