Lol Well I have a history of being resistant to some drugs. Kinda weird. However I think it was more of a will power sort of thing. Physicist get a +2 to their will saves. :) 2 of mine were impacted but the pain is virtually nothing. I had previously almost lost 2 fingers in an accident with a ban saw and they were unable to numb my hand when the gave me the stiches. (only need stitches because I didnt hit the bone)

I think maybe I have mutant super powers like magneto or Dr. Xavier. I will admit that it did hurt some when I ate solid food but I refuse to let pain control me for the next few days. Especially when I have sooo much to do!

So, I'm going to the oral surgeon to have my second wisdom tooth removed tomorrow. If I get rid of this one without any pain, just like the last one, then I'll be one lucky bastard. :biggrin: So, please, hold your thumbs, because apparently it worked the last time. :-p

Good luck radou!. Don't worry much about the pain anyway, it's just temporary.
 
  • #34
Is the the last one they will be pulling? Good luck, again!

Had you known it was going to go so well last time, you'd have probably had them do both in one session! Good luck!

Radou, good luck tomorrow. :smile:

Actually, the last time just before the operation the surgeon suggested (well, a bit jokingly, but still) pulling both of them out, but he didn't even finish his question, and I was already like "nonononononono". :biggrin:

Yup, the last one, thank god. The upper ones aren't causing any trouble at all.

So, I came home an hour ago, and everything went well. It was done in 10 minutes. :cool:

Well, amof, I hate these long weekends off! Besides, I've got plenty of work to do at home right now, so the only bad thing is that I won't be able to go out tomorrow or on saturday evening. Well, I could, but I can't imagine going out without tasting beer. :rolleyes:
