...teeth. Well actually I didn't loose them I had them pulled out. It was actually very nice. I must admit I was not a fan of the fact that my wisdom teeth were coming out but because they were starting to get infected where they had not yet surfaced (part of all four had pierced through my gums) and some were actually starting to wear away at my jaw bone.
I used to joke with my friends who would tell me that I would most likely be awake while they pulled my wisdom teeth that I would put up a bit enough fight that they would HAVE to knock me out to pull them out but thankfully I didn't have to go through with it because I was knocked out for the event.
Heading into the office I was asked to lay down. I was given an IV, and due to my experience (ahem, one time) in giving blood the IV was no biggie for me......and then I had a clip on my finger to measure my heart rate and given an oxygen tube.
After sitting in the chair for a while the doctor came in and with a "Goodnight Irene" put a needle (or two) into my IV. I waited a couple minutes and nothing seemed to happen and then next thing I know I was opening the door of my dad's car back at home....Whoa! I totally forgot getting out of the chair...leaving the building, by a different way too so I wouldn't fall down 3 floors worth of stairs or my dad driving me home!
But besides that I am happy to say that now, over 12hrs later I still feel no pain (yay for pain meds!), the freezing is gone and I am looking forward to eating more icecream and pudding tomorrow :D
So do you remember what your wisdom teeth experience was like? If you were put out for it do you remember waking up or anything after it?
