The final wisdom tooth pity party and updates
Hey there, getting my last tooth out in like 12 hours! I'm scared, especially since I strained my sinuses and now my ears and throat sting. My brother Is also sick right now so I'm terrified of catching it. I will be whining a lot in this thread in true post wisdom tooth cat fashion. So grab some muffins and let's get this pity party going 🥳
DAY 10 UPDATE:
Woke up with a bit of *** saliva so started the morning with a complete panic. Where did it come from is a mystery, but I suspect the mouthwash was a bit too soon, as the stitches are still in and it probably dried to wound out without having a proper out and re-moisturising opportunity like it would have in an open wound case. So decided to not use it today unless I bite myself from the swelling. It's certainly going down and I seem to move my head back better now.
Otherwise been an absolute menace today. Called my doctor to make an appointment, picked up some shifts for the next month and working on scheduling some baking hangout with my loved ones next month. I also fixed a plushie my boyfriends puppy chewed up. Couldn't do much about the eyes being scratched from teeth, but at least mended the holes and did a little bit of my beta read I'm currently finishing up. Yay.
I'm still not fully back at my abilities as I can't bend or lift too much, but as you can see I'm already bored out of my mind. But so is my OCD, and it made an absolute event out of retryign inhaler. Damn I didn't realise how normal life felt not using it and now I'm stuck with a complete and utter panic of
- I dislodged my clot
- I will have an allergic reaction to it
- I will get an infection of the wound
So OCD is ocding, but at least I rinsed the mouth piece out so it has no residue. Hoping for the best (and medicine survival) lol

@Amanda84 thank youuu ❤️ I'm so bored out of my mind but I also can't return safely to work yet so I'm stuck in the best of all worlds. Should not go out unless I have to to not get sick, not able to safely work yet, feeling good enough to have my brain back at least partially, but that also means getting an entire shipment of ocd delivery to make up for the last week when i was too exhausted and in pain to actually think I'm dying 😂 but hey, a lot of procrastinated things are getting done, like the admin calls/emails i had to manage or manual time consuming things like fixing the plushie.
So your goal should be to work on those cultural foods posts, yeah? ;)
@jesusredeemedme2425 I totally have a promised pastry selection post hanging 😭
That too hehe
Also see if you can find a cool food for every post there is! Find a pic for each one <3
Oh damn it i can't count it's supposed to be day 9 😭
@sadcat13
I'm just so afraid now ð¤ªð¤ª
@RunningMachine you should be 😁
Mwahahahaha XD
@sadcat13
I used to be bit of an IT nerd, just wandering how many animated images you have !!!!
I'm still frustrated that I can't get GIFs too upload feommy laptop 😕😕😀
@RunningMachine they aren't really mine, just using the cups search 😁 but I love GIFs, they are a mood 😁
@sadcat13
You can cry all you like, I had one impacted wisdom tooth surgically removed back in 2006 and that was enough trauma for a lifetime ! Having more than one sounds like a horror show. Sending good healing vibes your way !! 🙏
@SugarFreePlumFaery awww, I'm so sorry you had such a bad experience. Wisdom teeth are such a punishment of nature 😭
@sadcat13
You got that right !
I try not to think of it but I have potentially 3 more that can be removed and I don't fancy it. I am in my mid 60s now and recovery sucked bad enough in my 40s. Eek !! 😯
@SugarFreePlumFaery I hope they will behave and you don't have to go through that again 🌻
2 WEEKS UPDATE
Been to the dentist to get my stitches removed. He said it's healing well but is not done yet, and one or two stitches aren't ready to go yet. So we will check on it again in next 3 weeks if everything is okay. I'm worried about my newly exposed wound, but I'm at least going to survive today for sure
@sadcat13
Missed your updates, good to hear.
Wakingbwar up done, run time 😁😁
@RunningMachine there wasn't much to update besides constant swaying between thinking I'm about to kick the bucket thanks to my OCD and forgetting about my surgery completely 😂 so decided not to waste everyone's time with it. Currently, I'm panicking that my wound got unstitched, food will get into it and I will depart to the other side of the rainbow 🌈 so nothing changed as you can see 😁 and if I survive today, I can go to work on 7am tomorrow because inventory day. Unimaginable horrors for afternoon/evening shifter me 😭
@sadcat13
No rest for the wicked, do you use an abacus for the inventory ?
@RunningMachine no, my last 3 Braincells on 4 hours of sleep and scanners 😂😂😂😂
@sadcat13
Your last 3 braincells, you must be gifted then 😉
@RunningMachine oh I am. I am a master of misinterpreted instructions because my brain sees at least two possible ways lol. And I usually pick the wrong one 😂 so trust me, they are working overtime up there 😂 like my dad said he will switch our cups as he took his off the table and put mine there and I stared at him trying to comprehend if he meant switch only cup placement or wants me to drink his tea instead of mine too 😂 you can go figure which one it was when i asked for clarification 😂
@sadcat13
Thank you for the giggle but drinking tea rather than coffee, really ? I don't do tea 😉 (i know shoot me, I'm English too)
@RunningMachine I don't like even the smell of coffee. We are all tea people here except my mom 😁
