hey. so.. had my wisdom teeth taken out yesterday. I slept most of the day away. Same with today. am on 2(!) meds...one for pain, and one is an antibiotic. Don't want an infection now.
So... lucky my mom was super kind and bought ice cream for me. i can't have anything thats not liquid. gahh.. no cake, burgers, corn, pie, candy, granola bars, chicken, potatos, eggs, you get the picture. What can i eat? well... ice cream, tea, hot chocolate, and soup. well.. blended soup. i'm trying chicken noodle, but i have to swallow the noodles whole since i can't chew them. I even have to swallow the chicken chunks. gahhhh. i wanna eat real FOOD!
the holes hurt. The right side more then the left. I keep falling asleep. i think the meds are the cause of it.
i have work on Saturday. I will see how i am tomorrow and call them on friday if i don't feel up to it. Then i have school starting up on Monday. that....should be interesting. Been out of school for a month. Lets see how my grades and studying are since the break.
ok.. anyone out there thats had their wisdom teeth removed? if so, what was it like for you? What did you find that worked, and what did you find that didn't work?
Any foods that made your life easier?
How many days were you out for? Did it take the 3 days the dentist said? longer? shorter?
Do you think it was worth it?
and the kicker, what about the holes? are they still holes? did they grow over? do you have to flush them out after eating? WHAT HAPPENS TO THEM?
k. so.. hopefully some of you guys out there can share your memes of what it was like.
thanks!
and now to get back to the ice cream.
