I had emergency oral surgery yesterday morning.  I went to the dentist on Thursday for my bi-annual check-up, and he said one of my molars was cracking from A) a too large filling; and B) the wisdom tooth next to it was growing in sideways putting a lot of pressure on it from underneath the gum.  Nothing hurt, but he said it would start sooner

Wow what unexpected mess. Hope you feel better.

I've taken both codeine and vic for various problems and found that they really don't numb pain, they just get you stoned so you don't care about it.

lol so true

The Vicoprofen knocked me out big time this afternoon. About 10 minutes after I took it, I was on another planet. Slept for about 2.5 hours.

And thanks! I'm doing a lot better than I thought I would, thankfully. :)

oh i hated getting my wisdom teeth taken out... any situation in which i cannot talk = not a happy camper.

i wish you a speedy recovery and many nummy milkshakes...

Hehe. I can talk and eat, but both are a little awkward. I can't open my mouth very far, so it takes me about 3 times as long to eat anything. But I'm okay for the most part.

I need to get more iced cream for milkshakes, actually. I wish I was allowed to eat yogurt (a no-no because of the active bacterial cultures), because then I'd just eat smoothies all day.

yep i subsisted off jamba juice for most of my oral surgery downtime... bacteria be damned

*hugs* I got all of my wisdom teeth out in one go and it was no fun at all. At least you get to eat enough ice cream that you get sick of it, right? ;)
