RE: Messages from within the veil - I survived

in #blog2 years ago

I hope you have a quick recovery.. any pain tooth related sucks big time if you ask me. I had my fair share of tooth troubles and still have some stuff to fix as well. After some nightmare dentists in Hungary, I'm not really keen on finding a new one here, thanks for the reminder though, lol. Should make an appointment.

Do they always do this with anesthesia there? I remember being injected by the jaw surgeon for one trouble wisdom tooth but never being put to sleep.

take care!

It very much depends. When I met with the surgeon for my consultation before hand, he took one look at me (And the xray) and immediately said he'd put me to sleep for the procedure, because 1) "You're too big, you'll fight back", but probably more so, 2) it was going to be a difficult procedure,

I'm glad I was asleep for it.

Makes sense, in any complicated case, I'd probably prefer it myself but I just never had the option while I guess that one time at the jaw surgeon there was a good reason. I also had one that they were trying to get out with 3 people but the thing didn't move an inch, will spare the details but that was public dental care (free) by mostly students, wouldn't recommend it.

Sounds horrific. Apologies that my post brought on such traumatic memories for you.

I don't regret getting this done, because if I left it, it would be much worse in the future, but at the same time, present me, hates past me. Future me may thank me, if future me continues to exist beyond this recovery period, which I intend to.

No don't worry about it, I wanted to spare you the details while you're in this state lol. I'm afraid to go to a new dentist as previous ones have proven not to be that great but it's not that I feel bad reading about this topic, don't worry!

Nicely said, Had to read it twice though :)

Sometimes you have to get it over with to prevent worse, I have personally been postponing the reason mostly of other things having priority, which is stupid because tooth problems can cause a lot of other health issues, so I should be smarter, lol.

You did the right thing there though, so you're good hehe.

Thanks. It is the small things that I enjoy at the moment. I drove to the bus station to pick up my wife a few hours ago, and it was the first time behind a wheel since Sunday last week, and it felt good. She doesn't drive, so it is pretty much the only thing I've been able to do to be helpful around the house apart from whimper and play charades for the last four days.

Haha this made me laugh! Your wife is lucky! I currently have a personal driver too as I'm on tramadol for my back (suggested sciatica, scan next week) and I'm drifting to la-la-land every time I take them.

These moments are a good reminder to enjoy the little things in life, so at least not all was bad with this surgery ;) and probably once healed you're super happy it's behind you!

Mmm. I've had my share of sciatica stuff in the past, Mine was to do with a little muscle known as the piriformis. Its little, but causes big pain. hopefully these medical costs don't bankrupt you, and you can feel somewhat more human at some point in the future. Hopefully soon.

The drug induced lalaland is one that can be lovely, but also frustrating while being trapped behind a veil. Some people love that feeling, but I feel diminished as a human. I don't like that feeling.
