Ouch!
Last Monday Ryan got his wisdom teeth out because before his mission his dentist said they didn't need to come out, but he has had some infections and the best way to solve the problem is taking the teeth out so he w
ent in and had them taken out by an oral surgeon. Tuesday and Wednesday were fabulous, he took the antibiotic, but didn't need very much pain killer. He also didn't noticeably swell either. Thursday he went back to work though and he came home feeling really sick. Friday morning he woke up in a lot of pain so he ended up not going to work. Anyway so we call the doc to see what's up and he thinks it is just the nerves coming back and tells us to call if it gets worse. Saturday and Sunday same thing, lots of pain so we call the doc back Sunday night and he says to come in Monday morning- by now Ryan is out of pain meds. We take him in and sure enough he has dry socket in both bottom holes, but the top two were fine. They packed the holes full of gauze that had numbing stuff that was supposed to last for 2-3 days, but it wore off last night so he went back in today to get repacked. Anyway, but he is doing much better and hopefully this gauze will last until he is fully healed. He did got out and work tonight and got a sale in the few hours so we were very glad since he missed a week of work from the teeth. I felt so bad for him because he has never had a surgery before and never had an i.v. so this was a totally new experience. Once they started the i.v. he was out so fast and he kept saying they hit me with something, it is working fast. Then coming back he kept saying he just wanted to sleep and it felt so good to have his eyes closed. Surprisingly so cute! It was pretty crazy to see me usually capable husband all incapacitated with the i.v. and medicines.
