Oral Surgery Brutality
Yikes. Just had 4 teeth out. I forgot how brutal and violent oral surgery is. They really just rip those things out with pliers, don't they? I mean, they did give me the local anesthetic, but it's still so rough. At least he didn't have to practically climb on the chair and stick a knee on my chest to pull them out like the Dutch doctor who once removed a tooth for me.
So it was done almost 2 hours ago and I still have some bleeding. Argh. I hope it stop soon so I can take a drink or something. Liquid diet for 24 hours. I have a feeling I won't work out for a day or two. Good thing I got up early to do the cardio premix from Cathe's Body Max 2 this morning.
I probably won't be online much once I start taking the painkillers, so I won't be able to comment on many other blogs, visit my favorite forums, or post much here. I'm going to go read that prescription now, actually. Hope everyone else is having a fabulous week.
Oh, and the orthodontist wants me to go ahead and put on the brace this Thursday?!?! Is that nuts or what? I made a tentative appointment, but we'll see.

Aack! I hope you bounce back more quickly than I did from oral surgery.
Oh, you poor thing! Just rest and take it easy, and enjoy plenty of ice cream and milk shakes the next few days! Don't even think about working out! Your workouts will be waiting for you when you're feeling better! :-) Sending you big hugs!
But just think about how you won't want to eat a thing since your mouth hurts so dang bad. You'll shed pounds like nobody's business! Of course, I didn't. I just cut up my favorite foods into toddler size pieces and gnawed them until they were tender.
