    I'll probably binge some anime and play video games or sleep most of the day. Thankfully I have Spring break this week and I got most of my work done before tomorrow so I should be fine. I've also got lots of yogurt, pudding, and water to hold me over.
    Okay, good to know you already have painkillers. I think playing some easy-going video games (Pokémon especially) would be great, and anime works well, also. Smartphone games are also mostly chill-paced games and should be fine also.

    You'll be fine, though. Hope to see you make a quick recovery. :D

That being said, if I say anything really out of the ordinary, rude, or mean to any of you, do not take it to heart. I do not mean it and simply am in a bad mood due to being in pain/under medical effects. I should be better by Tuesday, at the latest Wednesday, but I just thought I should warn you. I plan to reply to BB and anything else I can tonight, but I can't guarantee how I will feel in the coming days so, sorry.
    Oh, goodness. Well, good luck! I hope it isn't too painful. ;w;

    My wisdom teeth have barely even formed so it shouldn't hurt much and it's not like I haven't had teeth removed before so it's not unusual for me, but who knows.

    As long as they haven't pushed out of the gums then it shouldn't be too bad. In fact, I dunno how they will do it for you, but even the wait isn't very long or bad. They took me in there, the nurse hooked the IV (I think it was) in me and put the mask over my face. By the time the doctor came in I said hey and that's all I remember. I was out after that.

    The aftermath was just a little painful in the mouth is all. They prescribed me medicine to take, but it was really only soup, ramen noodles, and mashed potatoes for the next few days. I remember I tried eating pizza on day 2 xD it hurt, but after so much soft foods it was amazing! I needed something cool just to sit on my cheeks at times to help keep the (very slight) swelling down. Actually the reminds me...I had a customer come up to my register yesterday. The just mumbled and their friends with them just kept laughing and asking him questions. He would just continue to mumble. I looked at him closer and his cheeks were massively swollen and he had gauze in his mouth as well. Oh well that was just odd. Anyway, just follow the guidelines on what they tell you to eat and don't use a straw for sure (that hurts and can cause damage). Other than that it shouldn't be too bad. Good luck and hopefully the recovery time will be in no time Noble!

    The entire ride home following the surgery I was apparently singing Christmas carols. I also started crying when I thought my dad stole my nose. XD I don't have yet gauzes in my mouth anymore but I still don't feel like eating or drinking anything. The pain medicine is helping but I just don't feel like doing anything.

    I'm probably the only one who didn't take ANY painkillers after my wisdoms were pulled. xD Although I did only have the top two out; I was unable to get the bottom two removed due to them being close to nerves... :/

    I heard the bottom teeth are more painful than the top ones, though. And it's also harder to eat. It was hard to eat with just two of them out, I can't imagine four! 3: Anyway apart from living off mushy goodness for a while, you should be fine. Take painkillers if it hurts, and yeah, like Neo said, make sure they give you something during surgery so you'll remain numb for a while. I think they usually do, anyway.

    Yeah having all four removed at once was way easier (and cheaper because no needing to pay for the anesthesia again even with insurance). Also no having to deal with the pain twice. Luckily they put in the dissolvable stitches. Yeah don't drink from straws. You don't wanna damage your gums and cause dry sockets/pockets (I forget the term). Like Gemma said don't try to do anything that'll make you laugh. Hurts your cheeks (unless you like puffy cheeks that hurt and turn super dark/bright red).

    Mine hadn't come In at all yet. I've tried to keep from laughing and smiling, but I've done it a few times and it's hurt horribly. I'm still in a lot of pain and I think one of my stiches busted.

    Meh, that sucks. I didn't think smiling or laughing would hurt like that, so it might be better to turn off those movies.

    Maybe put in fresh gauze on the area where you think the stitches busted (they shouldn't have if the doctor knew what he was doing). Hold it for a long while, and try to keep it from bleeding so the blood clots.

    If it gets really bad, don't hesitate to go to the ER.

    I'm relaxing for now and have kept a gauze on it all day. I don't know if they busted but it's just bleeding a lot more on one side than the other.

    I won't, like I said, I don't think they busted but they won't stop bleeding.
