Today, I went back to my weird dentist clinic to get some cavities and an extraction of my wisdom tooth. It was her husband this time. I was actually a bit hesitant when they asked me to pull it out. I have a French in-class tomorrow, but she assured me that it'll only ache for a few hours.
Okay, few hours is fine with me. At least I got my paper pretty much done.
I guess this guy is a much more normal than his wife, and the extraction wasn't that bad, I was listening to my mp3 the whole time. In the end he had to sew it up, guess it was a big hole in there.
When I got out, she came out to tell me "Okay, so this thing will hurt for about four days"
"FOUR DAYS??"
She prescribed me some painkillers and two other pills. Dah-ddy then asked her to write out some notes for my medical insurance in Taiwan, so I also told her to write me a "doctor's note" for my professor. I mean, of course I have to use this opportunity to get as much as I can, I'm not suffering the pain for nothing! So I got a "please excuse Sherry from class today due to dental surgury!" WOOT
I walked next door to buy my dose. When I came out I remembered that I forgot to tell them that I want to keep my tooth. So I went back in there, and I told the nurse:
"um......... Can I keep my tooth?"
We stared at each other
"Oh...... it has been thrown away already" She looked apologetic
"OH......Okay..... in that case, nevermind then.." I was really disappointed and went out.
Anyway, I was hurting like crazy when I got back. I couldn't even sit still, and I kept on punching my fist against my legs. GOD. Finally I swallowed some food so I could take my painkiller.
I'm suppose to go back to get another one extracted next week, and another cavity as well haha.
