Ang wisdom teeth ba nagbibigay ng wisdom?
A big fat NO! This is a case of wrong packaging if I ever saw one.
All that they ever got me was a very puffy right cheek. :(
Last Tues, I had two of wisdom teeth taken out in a very traumatic (for me) 4-hour surgery. My dentists were complaining the whole time that I had an extremely low pain threshold as I kept wincing, fidgeting and yes, crying. Initially, the whole op was just supposed to run on one vial of anesthesia. But being the wimp that I am, I ended up getting five vials just to get me to stop jumping at every little poke and jab.
So now, I am stuck at home with the aforementioned puffy cheek (and an ice pack permanently affixed to it). And if looking like a prizefighter wasn't enough misery, I'm not allowed to eat solids or hot foods until next Tues. Worse, I have a hard time sleeping because I have to sleep in a doctor-prescribed way.
Misery....
And guess what I have to look forward to?
Another round of surgery in two weeks as I still have two more wisdom teeth up for extraction.
I so am not looking forward to the Christmas pictures. :(
