Off to the butcher... errm, I mean dentist

[andrewmck]

Well, I'm off to the hospital now to see the oral surgeon and get these 4 wisdom teeth removed.

Not at all looking forward to it (full anaesthetic day surgery) and looking forward even less to 3 or 4 days of a swollen and sore mouth and jaw.

But, once it is done it will mean an end to the horrible pain I've had every few months.

See you all on the other side.

Good luck!

I only had two, and had them removed just under a local. I was a pretty swollen, but pain killers, ice cream and jelly are your friends :)

Thanks for your thoughts, Amanda!
I'm not a big one for jelly, but the ice cream and painkillers are going down quite well :)
