So not looking forward to Thursday

[ewelin]

Yup... I am definitely not looking forward to Thursday. At 11am I go in for oral surgery. I'm having 2 wisdom teeth yanked out. One of them is impacted and that really bites. I must say that having work done on my teeth is probably one of the few things that really gets to me.. Drives me nuts... But it's better to get it done now rather than later. So if I'm not on the end of the week then you'll know why :-D I should be able to sneak on a bit though since we'll have our new laptop by then :-D

[strangeland2]

guy i work with just got two yanked thursday after watching him struggle to eat soup and jello im so glad i had all four yanked at once

[ewelin]

well the other two are good... they shouldn't need to be yanked. It's actually only the one that really needs to be yanked but if they yank that one and leave the one above it then that one will just continue to grow out beyond the gum line and it'd become painful down the road... Hopefully that makes sence...

So sometime today or tomorrow I get to go shopping and pick up some Jello and other foods that are easy to consume :-P

[strangeland2]

lipton box soup taste great ...i eat the stuff like its free but with the teeth yanked you ll have to make sure its not all that hot but its highly reccommended just cause im biased of course and you should have tried to get all four yanked at once it might seem bad but it wont hurt anymore than getting two yanked... but best of all you d never have to worry again since you re only getting two done if the need ever arises you re going to be completely miserable all over again

when i got mine pulled i had a sore in my mouth right at the teeth so i assumed it was my wisdom teeth
before i even made it to the evaluation thing it was healed but i figured i might as well just go see the doc and she said she could take them all and it would probably be covered under insurance so i said ok yank them and put me to sleep... otherwise they would probably still be trouble free but since i no longer have insurance im glad i got them yanked

good luck enjoy the week of liquid nutrition :lol:

[ewelin]

Just went shopping... stocked up on soup, jellow and pudding. Also got some squash and tators that i can mash up if need be... Hopefully it's not too bad... Only time will tell though :-(

[mwelin]

you made ALL of the kid's food before he started eating "real" food...you shouldn't have too much trouble coming up with food to eat. Pureed steak? mmmmmm, yummy.

[ewelin]

I'm too sick to have surgery this week.... so it's been put off til next thursday. Damn cold... they actually said I could have it but I wouldn't be able to be knocked out.. If i'm getting my teeth extracted I want to be out cold.

[TrippleTripple]

The cold bug has been going around lately. Unfortunately I have it myself right now sore throat, stuffy nose, ears hurt. No fun no fun..

[ewelin]

yeah i still have no voice... well minimal voice. Definitely sucks not being able to talk. I think this is the longest I've gone without my voice... really annoying!!!

I'm trying so very hard to resist commenting...must bite tongue...at least until you get home from the store with my storm provisions!

[ewelin]

yup... going to run out to the store to buy gas for the snowblower and chips... nice combo huh. LMAO. Maybe i'll snag some hot cocco as well for myself so that i can have some after cleaning up the yard and our neighbors.

Fun, fun, fun. Going under is the best part. Right before you go to sleep. Walls start moving and the lights on the ceiling do funky things. After McDonalds shakes and strap some frozen peas or corn to your face. It sucks.

[ewelin]

hmmm milkshakes... That sounds like a great idea!!! I'll definitely have to make sure I get one or two of those :-P;-)

[Tynan19]

Yep on the ride home.

[ewelin]

good thing there's a McDonalds right around the corner :-D

[strangeland2]

didnt the really cold shake hurt like hell drinking? i had to have everything room temp for about a week and a half cause any drastic temps would just make me cry like a girl well not really but it definitely sucked

[polaris800classic]

The only problem with MD's is they are so thick it might hurt to suck them through a straw (but they are good)... Maybe try Friendly's... Oh and good luck Eric...

[ewelin]

There isn't a Friendly's near by.... BK and McDonalds are just down the street... In the oposite direction of the oral surgon but I'm sure we could swing down that way after surgery :-D

Make sure you ask the surgeon...in a recent discussion on another board someone said that you shouldn't drink out of straws for a while b/c of the risk of dislodging the clot and getting dry socket.

Gosh, hope that image doesn't make anyone queasy :lol:

[ewelin]

i could skip the straw... i doubt i would want to be using one anyways. LMAO.

[Tynan19]

I didn't have a problem really. But MD's are a little thick. Try letting it melt a little first. Maybe your wonderfull wife will have one waiting for you.

[ewelin]

that's if i still have it done tomorrow... I'm still pretty sick. This cold has been kicking my ass! Gotta call the surgon later on and see what he thinks.

[Tynan19]

Good luck if you do go.

[ewelin]

I'm going... at 11.... here goes nothing... LMAO. See ya all later when i'm half as wise LMAO

[ewelin]

Still alive and kicking... Got some nice drugs.... so those wash away the pain nicely... It's more pain than I thought but the whole extraction went much faster than I thought. Took them maybe 10-15 minutes tops.

[Tynan19]

Wait till you wake up in the middle of the night when the meds wear off.

[ewelin]

yeah it starts to hurt once the meds wear off... they only last about 3 hours right now.. kinda sucks... but since i only had one side done i can eat pretty decently... just not too sure what i really want to eat... Well I really want a deep dish pizza... but that probably wouldn't be so easy to eat. I'm hoping the pain won't wake me up too much during the night, as that would really suck.

[Tynan19]

I tried not to use any prescription meds. So I only used Motrin or Tylenol I forget. Well I woke up in the middle of the night with so much pain I need a Vik so bad. Worst throbbing pain I have felt.

[Tynan19]

Oh yeah the guy hit a nerve in my mouth that caused my chin to go numb for a month. It was a little wierd shaving because I couldn't feel it.

[ewelin]

yeah i woke up last night around 4am in quite a bit of pain... man when those drugs where off it really hits ya. But taking them kinda makes me feel out of it for about an hour after taking them.
