Things about my surgery
Dec. 18th, 2009 11:06 amIt went fine. My teeth were horribly impacted, so they put me under.
No pain, no swelling. Not even stitches. I have pain meds but haven't needed them even a little.
I vaguely remember being awake long enough to get into Jay's car and then the appartment, and I believe there was pudding at some point. I wasn't conscious till around 6:45 PM. From a 9:45 AM surgery.
They remembered that needles freak me the eff out, so one tech covered my hand with the bib and stuck me, while another tech held my other hand and kept my attention on her.
My veins are so crappy that even with a tourniquet band, the best one they could find was in the back of my hand.
I had mac n cheese for dinner last night. YAY I CAN EAT!
