Fabulous, get thee to the dentist, and don’t be a chicken!
A tooth that has been root-canalled has no nerve and no blood supply. That makes it much more brittle than a complete tooth. The bonus is, with no nerve, you won’t feel a thing when the dentist works on it.
As for the cost, find out if your dentist will let you pay for it in installments. They might make you pay for the actual lab cost of making the crown up-front, but you might be able to pay for the rest over several months.
