I never want to get another tooth taken out ever again! I got my wisdom teeth removed on Saturday and, since then I haven’t experienced anything but pain, hunger, sleepiness, and disgust. There is something really nasty about having 4 gaping holes in my mouth that can so easily collect the smallest of food particles. I have been compulsively cleaning the holes but there’s still a bad smell coming from somewhere and it’s driving me nuts! I’m going back to the dentist today for a follow-up to see if I’ve developed an infection somewhere.
Today in particular, my mouth really hurts. I woke up at 6AM and had to take some more pain medicine because I couldn’t go back to sleep without it. The only good thing about this entire experience (besides finally getting the teeth removed) is that I’ve been on an almost entirely liquid diet. After having 2 weeks of really big birthday dinners, it’s a cleanse that I really needed. However, it’s really annoying because any time I eat anything that involves chewing (mac and cheese, spaghetti) my jaw is really sore afterward.
BLAAH I’M DYING AND I WANT TO GO HOME!!!!
