F/U Oral Surgery

[sadlebred]

I had the oral surgery this afternoon. Everything went well. The oral surgeon said that the tooth was really infected and the gum was inflamed. He's glad that I didn't wait any longer to get it taken out. He was able to save more bone than he thought, but I still got the bone graft. I've been asleep on the couch since I got home a few hours ago.

The novicaine has almost worn off. Needless to say my mouth is really, really sore and swollen. I just took a pain pill, which should kick in. They also gave me an ice wrap for my face that keeps the ice in place over your cheek. I was able to eat 2 eggs and some ice cream. (I don't care what I eat when I don't feel well as long as my stomach tolerates it.)

I hope you are feeling better soon and that you bought plenty of yummy ice cream.

I have Breyers Natural Vanilla, Talenti Double Dark Chocolate (or some kind of double chocolate yumminess), and Talenti Salted Caramel pops. I'm set.

I'm sorry you had to go through that, but happy it went a bit better than he expected. Rest up! Hope you feel better soon.

OMG talenti is the beeeeeest! Coconut is my favorite.

Hope you got good drugs and they're working.

Yummm talenti! I know it's only small consolation for such a major deal.

Glad you're home and doing ok. Rest up & heal quickly!

Glad the surgery went well:)

I wouls say yay for Ice Cream but my jaw surgery kind of ruined me on ever really liking ice cream again. I can't look at a milk shake with out feeling nauseous because that's basically all I could eat/drink for 2 months.

I'm feeling pretty icky in general today, but that is expected. I plan to take a very long nap and rest this afternoon. My mouth is sore, and it's hard to talk. Thanks for the good wishes!
