If you remember (or you probably don't) I had one wisdom tooth extracted last year (August)
I had to get the other 3 removed eventually. I have been really not looking forward to having all the pain and crankiness all over again, and I assumed it was going to be worse this time as I was getting 3 teeth instead of 1.
I was RIGHT!
Actually it wasn't that bad. I was sedated. Those of you who know me well won't be surprised as I hate strangers being in my personal space (or smelly non-strangers, you know who you are!) and I also really don't like the dentist. So its pretty much an anxiety riddled experience to go.
My mom came with me to take care of me (P was away on a job for a few days) and it was actually a really nice bonding experience.
So I had the 3 teeth removed by Dr Murray on Thursday March 29. I came out of the sedation a lot better than last time and didn't feel so drugged. I came home and used the orange tea bags they sent with me - ok SOMEONE out there is a genius, they work SO well!! I was amazed.
I won't go into any gorey details, you can ask my mom, actually don't, she was gagging a bit when it was going on and may not want to relive the experience.
The worst has been the past couple days, I'm really sore but I think I'm healing up pretty good, just having a hard time talking normally, Call the store if you don't believe me, however I have caller ID so I will know who you are.
One week down, hopefully this next one goes fast and then I can eat more than "soft" foods. Another name for "soft" foods is "borrrring stuff"
Oooohh, that sounds painful! Take care. We're thinking of you. I'm glad your mom was there with you. At least it's done before the wedding.
