Good Riddance to Wisdom

Plucked out my wisdom tooth surgically last Monday coz it was getting unbearable... Colleague recommended this dental @ Kembangan and I was quite heng as I managed to grab a cancelled slot. All others I called could only give me an appointment the following night or so. Then again, the dentist asked if I wana do it that nite, I okay-ed it immediately, since appointments for surgeries would be at least 2 weeks later... might have died of pain then, so heck, might as well.

The dental initially said its gonna be a 2-minute job... put me on anesthetic for damn long while she finished up another patient.. so long that when she began, I was able to feel a bit of pain! Squeaked to her with my open mouth that it hurts, then she injected more anesthetic. The drilling and yanking that followed was so-you-wouldn't-wana-noe... gum was totally numbed but I could still feel the actions... In the end the 2-minute job became at least 30 minutes... Dentist said her arm ached when my stubborn tooth was finally extracted.

Yes, that's my gum-bits stucked on the tooth... The roots were not the usual 2-legged ones but a whole chunk... Really painful after the anesthetic worn off... couldn't even swallow saliva, gotta pui it out the whole nite. Could only drink milk (which I super hate), cold water and cold porridge using a straw. 痛苦.

Removed the stitch last nite, now not so pain already but can still feel the strain now n then, like when I sneeze, yawn or even bending down. I'm so so so so CRAVING for solid food!

Absoultely STARVING!!!! Dieting is definitely not gonna be in my vocabulary for some time...
