Well, the surgery went really well. I think the dentist was surprised that they came out as easily as they did. It was only in the office a grand total of 30 minutes. I didn't even get woozy either mdash; just numb.
So, I've got generic Percocet and Vicodin and antibiotics and something for the swelling and my kitchen counter is looking like a pharmacy. I'm holding off on the pain meds to see if I really need them. I didn't the last time I had teeth out. I'm not sure about taking the antibiotics, though. I try not to take stuff I don't need and antibiotics always bring on a yeast infection. Plus, taking unneeded drugs causes resistance. I'll see how I feel tomorrow and make a decision then. I did have a wisdom tooth out once that infected and I felt like total crap and don't really want to go through that again. Danged choices.
On that note, I'm starting to ramble, so I think I'm going to go surf in bed until I drift off into (hopefully) the first pain-free sleep I've had in weeks.
