Good doc you've got. The bad thing is that i can't have any meds that may have Penicillin, i'm allergic to it.
Me too! The doctor at the time gave me a potent opiate. Seems like a lifetime ago, because it blew away what my friends were giving me at the time. I think I was 19 & I was ready to go back to have them pull as many teeth as they wanted... Lol. :crosseyed

Megan, so sorry to hear you had a rough time with the extraction. I know what you went through; as I had the same problem when I had all four out at once. Hope you get to feeling much better real fast.

Sounds like a rough time... So glad I was knocked out for mine. They removed all four in one session and I can only imagine how it would have felt if I was awake given the amount of swelling I experienced afterward. My right cheek looked like half an orange had been implanted there. Good luck with the last two..

I always hear the worst stories when it comes to wisdom teeth... There was a 13-14 year old girl I once vaguely knew in elementary school that ended up dying due to complications while having a wisdom tooth removed. She had a reaction to the anesthesia which caused her to stop breathing, not really the fault of the wisdom teeth but it definitely doesn't do anything to help their infamy.

I guess all you can do is be glad its over with and enjoy some ice cream :)

Thank you, all. I'm doing much better now. I got my stitches out already and the doc said i healed perfectly well. All i have to do now is to start moving my mouth a little more because i felt it a little stuck before.

@ r3db4r0n: Damn, that is a horrible story. I feel so bad for the family...

Hey Megan, I totally missed this. Sorry you had to go through all that. I'm glad your feeling better now. I hope you feel 100% real soon.
