The Post-Surgery Entry

The waiting time at NDC was so long... I reached there slightly before 2:30pm which is my appointment time, but only went into the surgery room at 4pm! Was so bored with only magazines to pass the time.

When I'm finally on the chair, this young male dentist who left me a poor first impression proceeded to gave me 5-10 jabs quickly. Perhaps I just had those jabs not too long ago, so I just concentrated on breathing and it's done. But somehow after that I got nervous, and my hands went numb and my whole body trembling badly. Oh well just one of my old problems, so I told the doc to gimme a few min more to relax and luckily I got better for them to proceed with the surgery.

Next they kinda covered me up including my head leaving only my mouth exposed. Then they began.. some drilling, hammering, pulling, sewing.. the whole process to remove my 2 wisdom tooth was really fast, done in half an hr's time. The doc I didn't really like was not bad after all, as he gave encouragements and even hummed during the surgery. After that I was back to the waiting area for a long time again.. but I think it's because they are short-handed, as the nurses multi-tasked, so I couldn't really blame them for letting me wait so long. Anyway I finally left NDC after 5pm... and straight back home.

They gave me back my wisdom tooth, but they looked kinda gross with gum tissues attached to it, so after taking a picture of it I threw them away. Biting on the gauze for several hours is actually pretty tiring too for my mouth. Luckily the bleeding lessen during the nite and this morning I was feeling much better, although my face is still swollen. I doubt I can leave my house just yet, coz I looked quite ugly now :( Oh I managed to switch to mui fan after 2 meals of porridge.. feeling abit miserable being unable to eat those yummy food and tidbits, but I promised myself once I'm recovered I shall gorge myself on those food! Wahaha...

I wish my face is not swollen so I can go out and get more things done... like making new specs, shopping, finding a new pair of comfy office slip-on shoes, looking for more accessories... Hmm or should I wrap a scarf around my head to cover up my swollen face and add a pair of shades? lol alot of people will be looking at me and thinking I'm crazy lor...
