Hey!

Remember when you had your wisdom teeth out, and you couldn't eat solid foods for a while? Yeah. Doesn't that suck?
I'm starving, and any time I try to eat something substantial, I need to take breaks every five minutes to let my jaw stop hurting.

I had surgery Thursday, and I figured I'd at least be functional by Monday. Nah. My jaw is still so

If you are having this much pain after 4 days, you may have dry socket. You might want to get it looked at if it's still hurting a lot tommorow.

That's what I said! I called my doctor and she told me I was crazy.

I had my wisdom teeth out last year. I was on Vicodin the first day. The second day, I had one pill in the morning and took the day off of work (just in case). By that afternoon, I was feeling fine.

I had an impacted tooth from one of my wisdom teeth that had to be removed. The dentist even had to cut into a bit of my jaw bone to get it out and put me on some anti-biotics just in case. Again, I was feeling fine within 36 hours after the surgery.

If you are still knocking back the narcotic pain killers... maybe you should get a different doctor to take a look.

Oh, I should mention, that was 2 different dentists I had.

Maybe you dentist just sucks! ;)

i had 2 of my wisdom teeth out, and the only reason i couldn't eat solids was cause they sewed up the gum.

no pain or swelling tho.

the first pain pill was good too...not the second...

I remember when I had my wisdom teeth out. They had to crush all four of them while I was conscious. Fun! :D

Tried to take the pain pill in the morning on an empty stomach. Threw up about 20 times. Couldn't eat solid food for... geez, at least a week.

Have fun!

Wow. I'm glad I didn't go to your dentist.

yeah it's a crappy process of limtied to eating jello and protein shakes.

I ended up getting an infection in one of mine like a week after so i had to go through the no solid food thing again.

That last part sounds pretty entertaining man.

Still don't know where you live.

Oh, and I need to know if you can give me Wes' number -- I could probably find him at Evolution, but he offered to trim my hair, and I want to take him up on it. I gave him my number, but couldn't get his.
