Hi all. I had my teeth yanked at 10:30 this morning. I was a little nervous. The dr had a hard time finding a vein to put the IV but he found one in my hand. He was really gentle when putting it in. It felt like a slight pinch. But after that I dont remember much until Jeff was lightly tapping my leg telling me it was time to go home. LOL.. He left to cash his check and then come back for me. It was suppose to have taken an hour but with only three teeth it only took about half an hour.
I woke up and I had a heck of a time standing for them to put me in the wheel chair. It was funny to watch. But we got me to the car and i was going through the baggie the dr had given me. I was suppose to keep gauze on the hole all day and change it hourly but its clean now. I had Jeff look after we ate dinner. So I might forget the gauze for now. I have a syringe to clean out the holes with. I have a perscription for the pain but we figured its easier and cheaper to buy Tylanol than then get the prescription the dr gave me. I dont need to be medicated for long periods of time anyway. My mouth is slightly sore but doable.
I came home and tried drinking some soda because i was craving sugar and ended up getting sick and scared Kora this morning. Yikes. But I am feeling better now. I laid down about 11:30 and slept till 3:00. Then we went and got some Kentucky Fried Chicken and I only ate my Potatoes, bisquit, and cole slaw. I am not spelling to good today. Bear with me.
Now I am writing the post. I am looking at going to lay back down for a bit. We might go back outside and have a small bon fire. That is one thing we enjoy doing as a family. Jon is gone for a couple of days. Another friend of ours asked him to go with his dad to S. Dakota for a work job. So he should be back by tomorrow. He will call and let us know if he isnt going to be back for a while. Feels strange having out house back to ourselves.. Only if for a few days.. LOL. Well I am off to rest. Thought I would let you all know that my 842 dollar bill is doing good.. LOL.. Not bad for three teeth..N..

Glad it went well and hope you don't have any problems after the fact. So that guy is still with you? Hope he pays some rent and isn't freeloading.
Jeannie he is paying for alot of food lately. He buys lots of stuff around the house when he has money. His parents are coming back to WI in June so we think after they come back he will go back and live with them. I think he is just waiting for them to come back.
Glad to read you came through this so BEAUTIFULLY....Over the many years of my life, I have had MANY MANY Teeth pulled....It is never pleasent...And sometimes it is really gruesome...(Dry Sockets anyone??) But generally, though a shock to the system, it certainly is an important thing to do. Rest Well and don't overdo....!
I only had three wisdom teeth, too. Luckily the one that was missing was on the bottom. Those are the holes that really need the syringe. Gravity, you know. Happy to hear you're doing well.
Yay! Sounds like it went very, very well. I'm wishing you a quick recovery. The only problem I had was with the injection sites of the Novocaine; they felt kinda itchy and infected for the first couple of days.
So this is done at last and all behind you, take care of yourself, I didn't know you have a a guy living with you, hope everything is going on well with him.
Glad you got through it ok.
Be careful and don't get dry socket it really sucks.
Thanks guys and gals. I will take care of myself. I am having a hard time finding things I can eat though.. LOL>.
Sorry for not being around more often, Tweety. We've been very busy here, so this is the first I've heard of you having to have three teeth pulled. Doesn't sound like any fun at all.
I'm a bit older than you... quite a bit! So I'm doing everything in my power to hang onto the teeth I have left. I've had several teeth pulled in the back, over the years, and never had any trouble. If you keep the sockets clean until they completely heal you shouldn't have any trouble either.
I hate having teeth pulled - because then the others start shifting around and its the beginning of trouble.....
Hope you heal quickly with no problems and have a few nights off work so you can recover - I truly think its kind of a shock to the body...
Last time I had a tooth pulled it was $85.00 - gosh yours were expensive - it must have been the knock out juice - EVERYTHING is just so expensive any more.....
I had all my back molars pulled at once to allow my wisdom teeth to come in. (The roots of my wisdom teeth are wrapped around the nerves for my face, so they cannot be pulled.) So far I've had no trouble with my wisdom teeth and I use them as my back molars. I do remember the bloody gauze in the back of my mouth and the gagging because it was so far back in my mouth. Yuck. My heart goes out to you and I hope for a _very_ speedy recovery.
It's a relief, isn't it?
I ate a lot of pancakes, soup, eggs and creamy peanut butter when I had teeth pulled.
Sounds like it wasn't too bad after all.
