18-2-2010 - i hate wisdom teeth

My mood while writing this blog: painful

good morning bEAUTIFUL MOMMIES.

SO NOW THAT I HAVE MY NEW COMPUTER DESK I FEEL AS IF THIS BLOG WILL BECOME MY NEW DIARY.

YES, I STILL HAVE A DIARY, AND I STILL HAVE ALL MY OLD DIARIES AS A LITTLE GIRL HAHA.

ANYWAYS.. I WOKE UP YESTERDAY WITH MY LEFT BOTTOM CHEEK SWOLLEN TO THE POINT THAT I COULDNT EAT OR BARELY SWALLOW. AT FIRST I DIDNT THINK ANYTHING OF IT AND FIGURED IT WAS BECAUSE OF A CAVITY OR SOMETHING SINCE MY MOLARS HAD BEEN HURTING THE NIGHT BEFORE.

I DONT HAVE INSURANCE SO MY FIRST REACTION WAS, WHERE IS MY DAUGHTERS BABY ORAJEL ?!

LOL

NOW I KNOW WHY MY SWEETIE LOVES IT SO MUCH, IT WORKS BETTER THAN ORAJEL FOR ADULTS!

WELL I DIDNT WANT TO CONTINUE TO USE HER ORAJEL SO I JUST DEALT WITH THE PAIN TILL ABOUT NOON WHEN SHE ACCIDENTALLY TOUCHED MY CHEEK ND IT BECAME EVEN MORE SWOLLEN AND THE PAIN WAS UNBEARABLE. I HAVE A SEVERE CONDITION WITH MY GUMS AND KNEW I COULDNT IGNORE THIS, IT HAD TO BE SOMETHING SERIOUS. I CALLED MY FORMER DENTAL OFFICE AND THE NURSE SPOKE TO ME AND SAID SHE WOULD RUSH ME IN AS AN EMERGENCY. I WAS LIKE HOLD UP AN EMERGENCY?! WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH MY MOUTH?!

I ENDED UP HAVING TO PAY FOR MY DENTAL VISIT (WHICH WASNT BAD AT ALL, HE GAVE ME THE 20% DISCOUNT AND FOR THE XRAY AND CONSULT HE CHARGED ME $50, COULD HAVE BEEN MUCHHHH WORSE). AS SOON AS I SAW MY XRAY I KNEW EXACTLY WHAT IT WAS. WISDOM TEETH :(

ALL 4 OF MINE ARE IN (YAY, NOT) AND 3 OF THEM ARE PRESSING AGAINST MY MOLARS. THEY ARE INFECTED AND YEAH, TYPICAL FOR WISDOM TEETH. I NEED TO HAVE THE 3 OF THE 4 EXTRACTED ASAP AND THE 4TH CAN WAIT BECAUSE OF A PROCEDURE I HAD UNDERGONE AT 17 REMOVING MY 4 BACK MOLARS SO THE WISDOM TEETH CAN COME IN SO THE 4TH ONE HAS NO TEETH AROUND IT.

SO I AM GOING TO SEE IF A FAMILY FRIEND ORAL SURGEON COULD MEET WITH ME TO DISCUSS PRICING TO SEE IF HE IS CHEAPER THAN MY ORIGINAL ORAL SURGEON. REGARDLESS I SHOULD BE IN SURGERY NO LATER THATN EARLY NEXT WEEK. I WOULD IMAGINE MONDAY OR TUESDAY.

IM OKAY WITH THE SURGERY, BETTER OUT THAN IN!

AFTER CHILD BIRTH I AM NOT AFRAID OF ANYTHING LOL. THE ONLY THING THAT HAS BEEN GETTING TO ME IS THE RECOVERY. BECAUSE OF MY DENTAL CONDITION I AM GOING TO BE ON SOME SERIOUS PAIN MEDS (YESTERDAY HE PRESCRIBED ME 750MG VICODIN AND ANTIBIOTICS) AND I WONT REALLY BE ABLE TO CARE FOR DAMAYA ON MY OWN LIKE I PREFER. OF COURSE MY GRANDMOTHER IS OFFERING TO WATCH AND HELP HER. ALTHOUGH THE FIRST OFFER SHE SUGGESTED ANNOYED ME. SHE WAS LIKE WELL AFTER YOUR SURGERY IN THE MORNING ILL PICK UP DAMAYA AND BRING HER TO THE OFFICE AND BRING HER HOME ON MY WAY BACK. I WAS LIKE HELL TO THE NO!

SHE MUST BE ON HER OWN MEDS CUZ SHE IS ABSOLUTELY INSANE IF SHE THINKS I WOULD SPEND A DAY WITHOUT MY DAUGHTER. EVEN IF I WAS ADMITTED INTO A HOSPITAL I WOULD HAVE MY DAUGHTER STAY THERE WITH ME DURING THE DAY AND BEG TO BE RELEASE TO BE WITH HER AT NIGHT. CONSIDERING SHE ALWAYS HOLDS HER AND AFTER SHE CARES FOR HER SHE DOESNT WANT TO BE PUT DOWN BECAUSE OF BEING SPOILED BY MIMA, YEAH NO IM NOT GOING TO DEAL WITH MY GRANDMOTHER LOL.

SHE WAS UNDERSTANDING THOUGH AND WE ACTUALLY GOT INTO A PRETTY GOOD DISCUSSION ABOUT HOW SHE HAS BEEN ACTING THE PAST, WELL.. FOREVER LOL. SHE UNDERSTOOD AND THANKFULLY THE VICODIN CALMED ME DOWN SO I NOT ONCE GOT MAD LOL.

I REALLY WANT TO AVOID TAKING THESE PAIN MEDS SO HOPEFULLY I CAN GET BY WITH JUST USING THE ANTIBIOTICS. UNFORTUNATELY I WOKE UP THIS MORNING EXPECTING MY SWELLING TO HAVE GONE DOWN AND IT DIDNT AT ALL. I ACTUALLY LOOK LIKE A BALLOON. LOL. SO I AM DEFINITLY COUNTING THE DAYS TILL I CAN BE WISDOM TEETH FREE AND RECOVERY OVERWITH.

HAVE ANY OF YOU LADIES HAD YOUR WISDOM TEETH, OR 3 OF THEM EXTRACTED AT A TIME? WHAT WAS THE RECOVERY LIKE? MY MOM HAD 4 REMOVED AT ONCE AND I DONT REMEMBER ANYTHING HAPPY ABOUT HER RECOVERY LOL. I REMEMBER A LOT OF FAVORS LOL. FROM MY LAST ORAL SURGERY I HAD STICHES THAT DISSOLVED. IS IT THE SAME FOR WISDOM TEETH? LET ME KNOW LOVES!

AND THANKS FOR READING!
