Yes, ugh. I just had them out two weeks now. In retrospect I would have let them hop me up on valium and stay "awake" during the procedure. When intubated through both nostrils they managed to scratch the inside of the left and bloody the right side for 24+ hours. My face was so swollen I looked like Quagmire and I should have called for more vicodin, because one ever 4 hours doesn't do shit for me (directions were 1-2 every 4-6 hours). Seriously, when you have it done don't be shy about what you need to actually be comfortable. The blood pooling in the back of my throat made it more miserable than it was already. I've heard of people being fine the same day though..how is beyond me. Even though I neurotically brush and rinse with listerine I'm just starting to notice one of the extraction sites is getting infected, I hate my mouth and will probably punch the doctor in the face if I have to go back in
