I had my wisdom teeth taken out on Monday. So not cool. Anyone who knows me knows that I am a big huge weenie when it comes to pain and I am a horrible patient. I've never had surgery, never had to stay in the hospital, never broken a bone, and (up until last week when I had a questionable freckle removed from my tummy) never had stitches. Thankfully D has had a really slow work week and had the 4th and today off so he was able to dote on me and be my nurse. He's been so wonderful, making me mashed potatoes, running out to get me ice cream, and reminding me to do my salt water rinse. I kind of like him :)
Today is the first day I haven't been watching the clock and taking ibuprofen EXACTLY when I can take my next dose. I gave up the hydrocodone approximately twelve hours after the surgery, since it made me puke back up the vanilla pudding I had for dinner (which I haven't had any more of since). I'm also looking less like a chipmunk today which is a great accomplishment! I can *almost* smile normally and I only talk a little strangely now. I can't wait to get the sutures out on Monday and be back 100% :)
