Wisdom Teeth
So this is exactly how yesterday went...
I got up around 9:30am, Then we left at about 10:15. My appiontment was @ 11am and we got there at like 10:40. So then as i sat there anxious as to what might happen next i talked to Holly's Mom while my mom signed me in. I am not a fan of needles so i questioned Holly's mom about the IV proceedures. So i found out they give u laughing gas before putting the IV in and then comes the anestisia. In just a few minutes the nurse called my name and i was off. She asked me how i was and i replied with good, but i was quite oppisite of that. i followed her to the room and i walked by another room and someone was lying there i took a quick glance but i didnt bother to stare, since i didnt want to scare myself anymore. As i sat on the chair i had to laugh as to how nervous i was. Then they started plugging me up to all this equipment to check my heart rate and pulse. Thats when i started shaking, yea they are just wisdom teeth but either way its surgery and i've never had any type of surgery. The nurse also gave me some strange rubber thing to bite down on, to keep my mouth open i guess. Then my mom verifys that Holly is next door and she kept updating me saying Holly's waking up i was just like mom SHHHH ur making me more nervous so then the nurse said we better give her the nitrous(laughing gas) So then i giggled once and that was about the only thing i got out of the laughing gas, it pretty much had no affect on me and i felt the dentist put the IV in. It wasnt horrible since i was concentrating on breathing anf i couldn't actually see her stab it in me. Then i was about to cry my nerves really got to me. I was told to keep breathing and i did so and just stared at the bright light. In the background i could here my mom asking if i was asleep yet and i said no to the best of my ability. I guess thats the last thing i remember. Weird how it works but that was the best sleep i ever got. I woke up with cotton/gauze in my mouth wonder why my tounge felt abnormally weird. The nurse came in and i tried to talk and say my tounge is numb, i was highly amussed as to how strange it felt i doubt she understood me she kinda nodded or something, not sure i was still too drugged up. So she handed me ice and i pressed it down on my face soon to realize my lip felt huge but it was nothing but numb. My whole lower mouth was completely numb. I was escorted to our car by my mom and the nurse, that was the strangest walk, i was able to walk but every few seconds i felt drunk and then normal again. All together it was a strange expieriance. So then i got home and got some ice packs and my mom went to the pharmacy to get my pain killers. She told me to take one but i was bout ready to pass out and get some sleep so i took two and in an hour i was taking a nap. Drinking water with a numb lip is strange LOL by the time i woke up i was no longer numb. The bleeding isnt too bad either. I took out the cotton after an hour and then put some more in just cause the slight taste of blood isnt my thing haha but after that i said fuck the cotton and i'm fine. Frozen peas,o boy i put those mugs to my face and it was coooooooold. I used my ski gloves so my hands didnt get cold holding them, i must admit my idea was brilliant. So all of yesterday i ate jello, pudding, and drank a few smooties. My right side hurt, not bad ...it was more of an annoying pain. As for the swelling i cosider myself lucky, maybe i was a tad swollen but to the piont where its barely noticable. Everyone told me i was gonna look like a chipmunk and i didnt so HA! I'm unsure as to why people take pain killers for fun. All they did was make me feel dizy and caused me to sleep, yea its great when its prescribed but i just don't get the fun of it. So here i am and i feel 100% fine and it hasn't been a full 24 hours yet. My pain killers have wore off by now and i have no need to take more since i am okay. I just ate blue jello but i'm hungry for some mashed potatoes yummmmy better yet i'm down for mac and cheese holy shit that sounds good.
