Well the past week has been a painful one. I had mouth surgery last friday and I'm still feeling the pain. I had 4 teeth pulled and my gums cut to help my eye teeth come through. Of course before my surgery started I fainted getting my IV. I awoke to doctors smacking my face. I totally forgot where I was and my body felt like a ton of bricks. My doctor told me at one point I stopped breathing!Scary!! When I faint for some reason I dream about swimming or being in the water (maybe its a comfort for me, who knows.. ) and this time was no different. So maybe this is why I stopped breathing because when you swim under water, you hold your breath. I don't know if I'm making any sense with what a saying. Anyways I'm so glad that it's over with and I hope I will never need to have another surgery ever again.
Yesterday I was feeling so much better until I went to my orthodontist apt. My doctor put these "buttons" on the tips of my eye teeth and then attached them to my braces. OUCH!!!! The hold drive home all I could think about is having some Tylenol and other heavy drugs to knock me out. An hour after my ortho apt. one of the buttons came off my tooth and I had to go back. Last night my face was so swollen and sore. I know this post is a whiny one but seriously it's all I can think about.
