Oct 25, 07 02:06 pm — I am sitting here witha butt load of gauze in my mouth because I just had my wisdom teeth removed. I haven't felt any pain or even felt that tired but I can't talk nor can I really eat because my chin is still numb. Ummm....thats about it I guess just wanted to talk because I kinda can't right now.
Whoa, didn't even notice this journal. 
Hope you're feeling better Joe.
Don't let captain dweeb know you have numb jaw he will want you to pull an "Angie" on him!
LOL at "a butt load of gauze in my mouth"
Wishing you a speedy recovery nonetheless.
holy hell, when i had my bottom wisdom teeth out it was the pits.
and i had to be on a plane to go away for 6 months 3 days later.
heal quickly and enjoy the meds
p.s. shouldn't beggarsfarm be taking good care of you? 
don't worry she is. I've barely had to use the meds which is making me curious as to how much hydrocodine goes for on the street
well when i was in antarctica they could be traded in small quantities for a bottle of absinthe.....
not that i did that, er, that i would do that.....i just know someone who did....
if they give you the red gel cap pill. dont remember the name cause i was in a coma for about a month from them. they are GOLD!! i had to stop taking them i really was naroleptic.. i was passing out in mid sentence like 3 weeks later. was awesome lol
good times.. should see the notepad i had trying to talk to my g/f at the time . trying to have convo with her driving and me not making much sence..
she laughed.. until i showed her the bloody rag in my mouth. she got really quite after that lol
Did you have them out for a reason? I have one erupted and the others sitting happily in my jaw.
"While it is clear that symptomatic impacted wisdom teeth should be surgically removed, it appears that extracting asymptomatic, disease-free wisdom teeth is not advisable due to the risk of damage to the inferior alveolar nerve."
well my two bottom ones were impacted but poking through my gums and making a hole where food could get stuck. My top two had come in like a year before but kept moving downwards so that I was frequently hitting my bottom jaw with them.
Pay no attention to him Joe.
Taking dentistry advice from a Brit is, well, I can't think of a good analogy, just don't do it!
I have an analogy for you; taking political advice from an American. 
We'll be out in six months.
Is that political advice or something to do with dentistry? 
maybe he means out of the closet?
Could be, maybe a dentist's closet?

The drugs they give rule...
EDIT: What I meant to say was that they made me a vegetable when I had my wisdom teeth out. I recall waking up at one point with drool hanging off my chin and not even caring. Well, I suppose too it was the fact that I couldn't hardly lift my arm to wipe the drool away. Heal fast!
