So, I got my wisdom teeth out yesterday.
First they hookd me up to all these machines to monitor my heart rate and stuff. Before they started my heart rate kept changing (I think because I was nervous) but they put the gas mask on me and I started to calm down. Then they put in the iv. Luckily I don't have a problem with needles. I don't really remember waking up or how I got into this little room they put me into but they put me in a room with a bed and my mom and sister were in there. I started to cry a little bit, and I'm not really sure why. I think it was the anesthetic. Anyway then they let me go and I came home and slept for a long time.
Now, I'm alright. My cheeks are all swollen. I look like a chipmunk only chunkier. A chunkmunk if you will. It's not all bad though. My mommy got me my favorite kind of ice cream. (Ben & Jerry's Dublin Mudslide. I highly reccomend it.) Now I'm not in that much pain. It's more like sore.
I really don't know how people get addicted to Vicodin. It's honestly not that great. And it doesn't make me feel like "high" or anything. I donno. I guess it affects people differently.
Anyway, that's my story.
Fun times. --Laura
