my wisdom tooth op

Sep 12, 2005 21:28


I just had my all my wisdom tooth removed today. I wasnt scared, but it felt a bit unbelieveable to go into the operation room., going on drip, and pads stuck to you to monitor the heart  beat, changing to their operation clothes, etc

Then the doctor said, " you are going to sleep now", he injected some liquid into me, then in matter of seconds i was seeing double and i just closed my eyes, i still could hear them talking, but after a few deep breaths, i was asleep. The next thing i knew, the nurse was calling me, "Grace.. grace," then she took away the oxygen tube from my nose, i was tearing and shivering too, felt rather cold. Then after that they pushed me into the ward to rest. My whole mouth was filled with cotton and i had to keep swollowing my saliva.the whole of my lower jaw was numb, couldnt feel my lips at all. My jaws didnt hurt, but it felt more like an aching feeling. right now, only the bottom right aches. not as bad as a toothache actually. But i guess its because of the pain killers and the LA.

i went in about 9 plus an was over by 12 something. The whole op actually cost me $1600. But because i m  on subsidy, so i only have to pay $600 plus and since i could use medisave to pay, i didnt have to pay a single cent. heeee... except the medication.

My face is so swollen now, dont want to go out the next few days, cant really talk and i can only drink liquids. Hope i lose weight too. hahaha.. i slept so much, i cant really sleep now.

hope i recover fast too..heee.....
