Well, we get to the oral surgeon's office and are reading over the paperwork/agreement stuff. What does it say? Three of my teeth are partially impacted, and one is completely impacted. Then I read another paper explaining the risks of surgery and types of sedation. I had been expecting to be "consciously sedated"- where they put you to sleep, but not fully. I guess this surgeon typically does general anesthesia, which is the normal "knocking you out, keeping you under".
That made me the most nervous. I kept having nightmares about not waking up, haha.
But anyway, they took my blood pressure at first, which was surprisingly a little low (I thought it'd be like racing!). They hooked me up to the IV, and that's when I got really anxious and started feeling light-headed. So my blood pressure dropped, they gave me some blood pressure medication, and something to reduce the nausea.
That's when I fainted. LOL.
When I came to, they started the anesthesia, and that's the last I remember!
I'm still not in any pain- it's been really nice! I've been super tired, though. My boyfriend told me once the numbness goes away a little I'll start feeling more pain. But so far it's been OK.
I have this really stylist sock that has ice packs inside, which wraps around my head to help with swelling. Haha. Even though I'm crazy insecure right now, here it is:
Hahahaha. Have a good day!
