Surgery

I'm not sure how long this post will be I'm going to try and get out the whole story, but that depends on how well I continue to feel ok. First thing first, I'm doing ok right now, I've very sore, and talking is hard to do, so fyi if you want to talk to me text me or email me...or just call hubby.

Grandma came over at about 10am to watch the kids for us. Then my friend T came over after work with her kids so grandma didn't have to drive at night and didn't have to be there all 8hrs. Thank you to both of them for doing that. We got to the hospital, I had to have blood drawn which thankfully they let hubby come be with me at that time, I don't do will with that stuff. Then it was time for my IV. By this time I had two little brake downs do to my nervous I'm so glad hubby was able to be back there with me, otherwise I think it would have been much bigger brake downs. Then I got the relaxing medicine. I remember telling the nurse and hubby "I feel something starting to work". That's the last think I really remember, I do have a "memory" 3 big spot lights and someone saying "we are going to get you by that table then move you on to it", but don't know if it was a dream or really happened. The next thing I remember is having a nurse tell me "it's ok, it's all over you're out of surgery." Then they asked me who came with me and I said my husband, they asked his name, then asked if I was ready to see him. I say yes! If I could I would have screamed it. I'm guessing I woke up in a panic, cuz I over heard one nurse telling another nurse she was handing me off to "she was in a lot of panic and anxiety when she wake up". Then I got wheeled to the first area I was at before the surgery and got to see hubby. As soon as I saw him I know something was wrong, he looked really upset and worried. I guess about 20mins into the surgery they call/paged him making him think something was really wrong. The dr wanted his consent to pull another tooth that he was concerned about(more about that tooth later). Hubby gave the go ahead since the dr was worried enough to have to stop and ask him. I guess hubby was worried (not only about the page) but that I would be upset. Other than that we stayed around for awhile I had to try and drink, then we got to go home. I was so happy to be home. For the most part I have just been sleeping, or trying to, it hasn't been easy since I have to stay on my back, have my head elevated, and ice packs on my cheeks constantly.

Now my other tooth that was removed. In Nov 05 I had to have a root canal done, we found a dentist that was down the street. I went in, paid the $300 plus for the whole thing. The dr did the drilling part, but I had an infection going on so he gave me meds for it and we scheduled to have the post done a week or two later. Well, the morning I was suppose to have the post done we had to take N to the ER with a fever of 105 due to ear infections so I called and left a message on a machine cancelling my appointment. We had been up all night. Over the next few weeks I tried to call back and reschedule, but could never get a hold of anyone, and then it was disconnected line. Then I had the car accident and just never did anything with it, since it didn't hurt. Well since then It's cracked and basically have no tooth left, so the Dr yesterday that it was really bad .
