| Ghost Teeth by Tiffany Liu |
Tomorrow I am getting a flap procedure done with my gums. My appointment is at 10am. I have been cleaning most of the day because that is what I do when I am nervous. Fred put the big air conditioner in the living room window so I will be comfortable tomorrow...going to be in the 90s for the rest of the week.
I found out my aftercare list by myself. I called the office this morning to see if they would give me a heads up and they did not want to tell me. I just wanted to know if I needed to be on any special food diet or if they were going to give me pain meds or not. Geez!
Flap procedure aftercare consists of not eating four hours afterward and then only eating soft or liquid foods for 2-3 (3-4) days. I saw three websites that told me different times. No soda, no straws, no carbonated drinks. Nothing too hot or too cold. Nothing crunchy at all. Then there is the issue of pain meds and bleeding. I cannot swish or spit. I have to let the stuff dribble out of my mouth. Attractive!
I have to sleep with a few cushions under my head so that the bleeding can heal quicker. It is a clusterfuck, I tell you!
So tonight I am eating Chinese food. I have not had really bad for you chinese food in quite awhile. I am not listening to Chelsea. She will try to get me to change my mind and get Thai (which I cannot afford) because she doesn't want Chinese. Guess what chicky? It aint always about YOU! I want shrimp toast and egg foo young. Yummy!
I may or may not be on the computer tomorrow. It matters on how badly this shit hurts afterward and if my daughters will care for me while Fred is at work. I may send out a S.O.S. beacon on Facebook.
Wish me luck! Hopefully it will work and my teeth wont be all jacked up afterward
