Not looking forward to this...

Currently waiting to have two wisdom teeth out at the hospital. I'm bursting for a wee, and even though I was the first here looks like I'll be the last to go in as the waiting room has emptied apart from me.

Oh no, are you having local or general ?

I hope it goes well! I'm having one out in a few weeks under local.

Having general as I'm such a wuss.

I'm all alone in the waiting area and even the receptionist has disappeared!

How long do I leave it until I ring the bell?

thinking of you @tintodeverano2 , i had mine done , such a huge relief. GAs are good you will know nothing about it

Have you got something to read?

After all that it's been cancelled. Apparently I'm too risky and they need to do it at another hospital.

Oh shit, that's a pain, did they say when they could do it?

Nope, I need to wait for the booking department to contact me. Got a headache now from psyching myself up.
On my way home now, think I'm going to go back to bed!

Good idea, go and have a duvet day

And now I'm back again! 😫 feeling even worse than the last time!

Urgh didn't go to theatre until 5pm. 12 hours with no water and food

oh you poor thing

Feeling very sorry for myself right now!

At least it's done and the worst is over, well done you! When I had my 2 out under a general, within 24hrs I looked like a hamster and all my wrinkles had gone! Don't underestimate the benefit of frozen peas - I decanted some into 2 bags so there was always one refreezing.

That's very true. One side of my face is so swollen and bruised. I look awful!

Yes, it can be grim. Every day you'll feel a bit better - keep swilling salt water and be careful of dry socket (I've been lucky but it doesn't sound good!). Good luck 💐
