Okay, it’s not that bad right now, but the pain is starting to increase. I just had 3 wisdom teeth extracted an hour ago. My mouth is still numb and drooling from the novocaine, but the effects are starting to wear off. All they prescribed for me was 600mg Ibuprofen. Thank goodness we have some Vicoden at home. I wish they pulled out all four, but the bottom wisdom teeth are the hardest to extract, because they were growing at like a 45 degree angle into my other teeth. So the dentist had to constantly readjust the tooth and drill it. The drilling of the teeth made a Corn Nuts smell and taste. Must have been the teeth making that. But I didn’t like the assistant. She was supposed to do the suction of my saliva and stuff, but she never got the stuff backing up at my throat. So whenever the doctor did the drilling with water, my throat choked and I had to swallow the nasty Corn Nut tasting stuff.
Doctor says I should be bleeding and stuff for only a couple days. I hope I’ll be fine by Saturday…
Now where’s that sweet Vicoden….and that freaking gauze….
