You all know what I would suggest!!! XD

[RedSidedSPR]

Beer anyone?

[snakehill]

Margaritas would probably be better!!!

Alcohol hurts my mouth. I have smirnoff ice. I drank one the day after I got it done, but it burns. I don't want to get drunk, though. I haven't been drunk before and I don't plan on becoming drunk, ever.

[snakehill]

I thought you didn't drink at all Chantel.

[jitami]

Chantel, they say to get a tea bag wet, wring it out, and then gently bite down on it to hold it in place. It does seem to help. And if you're really hurting and the vicoden doesn't upset your stomach just go ahead and take it and follow with a nice nap. Often if I can get the pain to subside while sleeping I wake up pain free and feeling much better for a long while after... almost always longer than it would take for the meds to wear off. Good luck. I know it's awful

Damn, I know how that feels! I've had a lot o teeth removed....

And now when you smile you look like a Jack-o-lantern?

I've only had one removed. A wisdom tooth so I know how it feels. Only one wisdom tooth came in on the bottom, the other never existed. Problem is, the one that did grow did so in a horizontal position below the gums and pointed forward. Overall the aftermath wasn't too bad. The worst part is over within 4-5 days, and that is the swelling. Once that goes down, the pain isn't too bad.

I don't drink much. I'll drink with friends or with my mom. I only drink really light stuff.

They gave me some lipton lemon ice tea- teabags. Would those work? I actually gave my mom my mint tea when her tooth fell out and it was hurting. I was told that it only worked for broken teeth. I guess its technically the same thing.

The vicodin actually doesn't effect me. It hasn't even made me tired, and my dentist wants me to try to save it for tomorrow or the day after, when its supposed to get really bad. I also have to take penicillin, once my mom comes home with it... I hate taking a lot of meds.

[snakehill]

I've never taken Vicodin. Does it make you nauseous?

[kibakiba]

No, it's supposed to make you sleep. The first time I took it I got really hyper and happy. When I take it now, I get agitated and somewhat depressed, but otherwise it doesn't do much. I wish it would put me to sleep, because I cant take my sleeping pills.
