I like watching discovery health and they show a lot of surgeries and stuff like that. I like to watch that kind of thing, but other than that, ewww!!

i like seeing tumors and stuff, but im not okay with giant needles and tubes getting stuck down peoples throats.

well, i don't know if i would have wanted to see them take out my wisdom teeth this morning, but i think the looking at my teeth afterwards is cool. hehe.
gosh, my mouth is super sore now.. =/

It went pretty good I think.
The first time I went they gave me a 10mg Diazepam pill to get rid of the anxiety. I had to take it 45 mins before the appointment so I was totally drugged up and felt drunk when I got there. This time I didn't have one to take.. so I was super nervous. But it went well.
I had the weirdest dejavu experience, if that's what you would even call it, while they were putting me out for the procedure.. it was so freaking trippy.
It was so weird also for the fact that when they told me to do things to get the IV in my hand my brain heard them and then I could feel my body responding and to me it felt like  the longest delay between the two! it was super weird.. lol. I didn't remember any of that kinda stuff from the first time, thanks to the Diazepam.
The whole dejavu thing was SO weird... I felt like I was Des and I needed to remember what was going on because I could connect it with something from the past once I was out of the procedure... idk.. lol.

For anyone that's been put out for procedures before - are feelings like that common? or am i just special? haha.

As for now, my mouth is kinda sore, but not too bad. I'm totally on the slim fast diet now! lol. But luckily since they did one side over winter break and now the other side this time, i can chew on one side of my mouth once my mouth can handle the movements for chewing! lol.
The first time i didn't turn all chipmunk-y, so hopefully this recovery will go as well as the first.

aww, thanks debby!

gosh, that must have been bad having to go back to find that lost piece!
i know for my wisdom teeth the bottom two were so impacted they were going almost at a 90 degree angle at my teeth in front of them! so those for sure had to get cut some to get them out.
I really hope all of them got out! haha
The surgeon that did mine was phenomenal though, so i think i'm good. hehe

Here's a pic of the xray. I drew on the teeth... because it was fun.. haha.

yeah, I hope you don't ever have to get them out.
I'm 20, and the surgeon was a little concerned because of how late along i was getting them out.
the bottom two were also very much so in the nerves, so there was a slight risk of losing some feeling in my face temporarily or permanently, but i'm fine! i have all my feeling now that the drugs have worn off of the area. hehe.

Oh great, I'm turning 20 this year... Oh well, I guess you can live with a paralysed face. That's some nice drawing lol 

I didn't go to the dentist last year, I'm a bad person. I'll make an appointment this week.

well when i broke my neck, i was on morphine for about a week straight. i was in and out of conciousness and i can barely remember what was going on. i do remember having conversations with my favorite basketball players!  later, my mom told me that i was arguing with my best friend who wasnt even there
