Hey everyone. I got my wisdom teeth out today. I was put to sleep for it. I'm not in any pain right now at all. I'm limited on how wide my mouth can open but that's it. The dentist said that in three days the swelling is going to get bad and that's the worst of it.
You know, I usually do really bad with the anesthetic, (I go crazy right before I go into a deep slumber), this time I did pretty well. However, before the dentist put the IV in he put on this REALLY tight rubber band on my arm. It's like the bands that are put on our arms when blood is taken.
But I'm telling you this band was so tight. Anyways, I'll get to the point: I fainted. That band was just too tight. All I know is that I do very well with getting shots, blood taken, pain, etc, and so it wasn't my fault I fainted. I woke up about twenty seconds later and I know that because the clock was the same time.
Anyways, they gave me some oxygen and we were able to get through it. I don't remember anything after that.
The next thing I knew I was being shaken awake by three nurses and the dentist. The dentist said he was getting worried because the surgery was over an hour before and they stopped the anesthetic---so, I was asleep and nothing was being given to me to make me sleep….that's kind of scary, ha ha.
But, anyways, my blabbering isn't over yet. Hee hee. I was awake, yes, in my right mind, no. I kept trying to get up. Don't know why. Now that I think about it I knew it was stupid. They were trying to get me to stay awake. Goodness, I was tired!! And they kept talking to me and bothering me, ha ha! Finally they restrained me! Literally. They took these straps that were on the side of the chair and the tied me there. I started crying…:oops:
Whatever, I'm better now and life's good. I'm not looking forward to what's going to happen in three days though. That's when the swelling is supposed to get bad and when the pain starts.
My brother got his Wisdom teeth out too and he drank three sodas with a straw, (which you're not supposed to use a straw. It uses muscles that make swelling bad), so, yeah, he looks pretty bad. Hee hee.
Well, I'm really tired so I'm going to head off to bed now.
C'ya!!
P.S. Tomorrow Comcast is coming to hook up cable internet that's gonna be a speed of 12mbps!!! Yay!!
