I came back from the hospital. Good thing - I'm alive, the surgeon extracted my tooth... And he was scared himself :) I am a difficult case because I have problems with health and because I am so scared. But I did it. Now it hurts like hell... I hope it will get better soon enough. The bad thing I will have to go the dentist a few more times a couple of other teeth are bad...
((((@Lina)))) Get better soon

Thank you, guys! So far I can't even drink water, let alone eat something... I hope I will get better till Sunday, as I was going to go to the theater with my friend... Not so much joy now... But I appreciate all your good words, hugs and prayers, that makes it a bit easier! I hope I will be able to get some sleep this night, tomorrow I will let you know how I feel.

Why was the dentist scared? I'm imagining all sorts of scenarios...Lina showing up with an enforcer or two, big brutes, tattoos, in need of a shave...that or maybe you told him you're a Stephen King fan...maybe you got a pair of them chattery teeth, brought them with you...they sat on the shelf, bouncing and smiling.

Be sure to get them out because that can cause problems for your heart. Take care babe . . .

Sorry to hear about your troubles Lina, I hope you get better fast.

I am quite lucky when it comes to wisdom teeth, all of mine came through without any pain, one broke and needed a fair bit of filling to rebuild it but once the novocane is in I feel only vibrations and pressure. I actually find it quite relaxing, the needle is a very slight sting, then I feel no pain. I just lay back in the chair, look up at a rotating fan, and it is very warm, it's almost hypnotic.

Haha... I can't really laugh, but I am laughing! That's really funny. In fact, he was scared because I am a difficult case, as I have problems with blood...

Well, now it's a bit better, though it still hurts... I'm eating only food for babies:) Quite tasty, by the way!:) I really hope I will make it to the theater today... but as for going to work tomorrow - not so sure...

...if you have "liquid nutrition" of some sort available to you there-it'll keep your body fueled until you can eat more normally...
