I just got my top two wisdom teeth out on Friday.
I only did novicane and did ok. I look like a chipmunk and have a hard time opening my mouth very wide.
No my restricted diet is even more restricted. I had stopped ABX about 6 weeks ago to clear up my yeast. Of course the oral surgeon put me on amox course.
Basically I can feel myself slipping... I had gone 8 straight days without taking a day off of work. now it looks like friday and monday will be two in a row.
I just wanted to complain to someone. I'm sure everyone here doesn't want to hear it. Thanks for listening

If you need support then you are right to ask for it. There is always someone who will listen. I had two of my wisdom teeth taken out about 9 months ago but they weren't impacted so it wasn't too bad.
It sounds like yours were impacted. I had the other two surgically removed like you and I was in bad shape and that was before Lyme. I can't imagine having that with Lyme on top of it.
Eat what you can .. just TRY to stay away from sweets.
HUGS!!!

Sounds like we had the exact same thing done on Friday.
I also had my top two wisdom teeth out only with novocaine. I also took a valium beforehand.
I'm sorry you've had so much trouble.

How's it going D and D?
I'm still recovering from oral surgery last week Tuesday. I was intending to be completely recovered after about two days. UUUf. Don't know about you, but I'm sort of grumpy about it. The whole dental pain thing is rather inconvenient.
Glad you posted.
I sure hope your healing is coming along nicely!!!

I absolutely, positively hate to go to the Dentist (sorry Doc Dave).
I had 18 teeth pulled in my life.
Lucky enough to have two sets of baby teeth for some of my adult teeth.
Had impacted wisdom teeth removed too.
Just the smell of the gas will make me sick now.
I can really feel your pain.
Good news is the mouth heals faster than any other part of the body.
Sorry you aren't feeling well.
I bet you looked cute as a chipmunk though.
Sending you positive thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery.
Hugs,
Geneal
