Quick Update

Thank you all so much for all the sweet comments on my last post! You all really made me feel much better about the whole procedure!

The nurses were very nice and the last thing I remember was the nurse telling me I was going to feel like I was drunk. Fast forward an hour and I was waving at my ex-co workers at my Dad's business as I got my milkshake and tea (oh how I've missed that). Don't really remember eating my milkshake - remember looking at it and then hitting the bottom of the cup - but not anything in between.

The rest of the day I laid with peas on my face and dosed in and out of consciousness. There was very little swelling on my right side, but the left is a different story! I look like either Chip or Dale, and while chipmunks are one of my favorite animals, I have no desire to look like one :)

So that's that - I no longer have to dread going to the dentist and hearing him talk about the day the wisdom teeth have to be removed. Now I can finally look forward to Christmas!!!

Yay! You made it through! And the swelling should probably be down in time for you to gorge yourself on Christmas cookies!

My coworker's son got his wisdom teeth removed the day before Thanksgiving. Talk about bad timing!
