Besides time and cotton, nothing will really stop the bleeding but it shouldn't take too long to stop on its own. My numbness fully went away in about 2-3 days. I LIVED on mashed potatoes, they were the best. I also ate ice cream...

I guess make sure you apply pressure that should stop the bleeding more, but if it doesn't stop in liek 4 hours, thats a bad saign, so I don't know how long your mouth has been... Make sure you do not fall asleep when your mouth is bleeding either that can be dangerous :(

most of the bleeding has stopped. The thing was done at 9:30 this morning. ANd i have been sleeping all day, i cant really helped, they said they had to drug me up alittle more than usualy cuz im kinda big. DId you know your stomach can handle a pint of blood before it gets upset?

i havent been too bad stomach wise, but i think im definityl going to lose some more weight. Other than that, i just updated, so you can look there. But i guess ill ask to get the details on life down in indiana too. Just no gross details, i dont think my stomach could handle it. ;)

Just let it ride out as far as the blood goes. Not much you can do there. Since your mouth is pretty much wet all the time, it'll take a while longer than anywhere else.

Foods: Cream of Celery/Mushroom soup was delicious to me. So was Oatmeal, but pieces of oats kept getting stuck in the recesses where my teeth used to be, so be careful with that.

Listerine is a lifesaver. Get it. The holes in the back of your mouth smell disgusting. Clean them with Listerine.

Not really. I mean, yeah, it did like hell, but that's normal.

No added pain because of the holes.

I kept swishing out big chunks of something, though... i presume either they were food or scabs.
