So I went to the dentist with a very positive and might I say brave face about two weeks ago.. came out all swollen, bloody, and numb. Drugged myself out with the antibiotics and painkillers (which made me throw up the next day - and made me switch to regular ibuprofen type thing). Just when I thought I was healing fine, and getting back to normal - the crazy pains started. It was i'm telling you, was the mother of all pains. I thought I was going to die with the pain, as a matter of fact I wished I died..
so they figured I have "dry sockets" in both my lower sockets where they took out the stubborn wisdom teeth, and had to put some clove oil type packs.. apparently my stupid clot had disintegrated and gone missing, leaving an empty socket and the naked bone behind with its lonesome self and the deathly nerve..! arghhh the pain!
anyway, a few trips to the dentist, and few pack-re-pack business.. I'm on to some longer lasting dissolving pack right now - still with very bearable pain. Hopefully getting back to my normal self, and eating regular people food, as opposed to Mush.
All packed, and ready to go.. sun, sand, sea, and beaches!
