How to get my wisdom teeth removed
How I did it: I did great on day one and day two, but by day three my body said "Hell no!" to the Hydrocodone painkillers and I was SO SICK! I was throwing up the liquids i'd had the previous two days, and then was dry heaving. I was so weak and felt horrible. I had a throbbing headache and couldn't keep down Pedialyte.
It was very unexpected since my general tooth recovery went (and is still going) well! Today is day four and I feel fine.
Lessons & tips: My advice: Have a friend or family there for your comfort, even if
you're just sleeping. I drank Odwalla Chocolate Protein Shakes and
they were delish and gave me protein that I needed. Don't talk too
much, don't chew ANYTHING for a fewdays and just relax.
Resources: Ibuprofen, yogurt, ice packs, movies, pillows, friends, family and my boyfriend!
