Visiting the Oral Surgeon

Yesterday I called the dental clinic and told them 

that my teeth were hurting and I needed to be seen.

So they told me to come in at 2pm. Great! I've been

missing my appointments and this time I finally made

it in. I overcame the fear and just went.

I checked in and waited for about 20 minutes til' I 

got called to go in. They took full xrays and told me

that they're going to remove 4 that day. I was happy 

because I hadn't been to the dentist in 6 years and  

it's been long overdue. 

They removed 2 of my wisdom teeth a molar and 

some other tooth. They asked me if I took drugs 

and I laughed and said, no. But that my fillings were

just coming out and that I never took care of it beca

use we didn't have insurance before. Sure we had  

the cash to pay for it..but I didn't take care of it. I 

didn't take my pre-natal vitamins when I was pregn

ant on the last 3 and that's when I started noticing 

the weak teeth and all.

So she numbs me up on both sides, we wait for about

5 min. then she goes in on the first one and can't seem

to get it out. Even though I'm numbed up I could still  

feel the pressure and it actually started hurting when 

she was struggling to pull it out. I just thought I was  

going to die in my chair and I thought, oh God just let

this whole thing be over with and I'll never eat another 

dessert again! 

The remaining teeth are removed with no problem. 

After stitching my gums up she told me to stay clear 

of solid foods for a couple of days and I'm thinking

it's all good if I'm going to shed a couple of pounds 

from that!

Later on last night I finally picked up my Vicodin to 

kill the pain and ended up going to sleep without  

taking them. So far, so good. I woke up and just 

didn't want to take them, because I had to many 

things to finish today & didn't want to be sleeping

most of the day.
