♪♫ Ghost of Love - David Lynch
The last five days have been hell. And yes, its because of my surgery. It gets a little better everyday, but still very unpleasant. At least the procedure went well and I'm healing properly. I just wish my face didn't feel like I was hit by a bat. I got painkillers, but between times of taking pills...oh my fuck. It was the worst. :/
day one: the surgery
Wednesday, October 16th, 2013
I wasn't too happy about waking up at 8:00 am. I wish the appointment had been later in the day. But apparently they close at 1:00 pm. Ugh. Anyways, my mum came with me. I was happy that I didn't have to go alone...but she was cranky as hell and put me in a bad mood. She kept yelling at me while we walked to the surgeon's office (we decided to walk - its only fifteen minutes away). I was getting embarrassed, because people were walking by. Next time I'm getting BJ to come with me. She upsets me too much. -_-
My mum was quiet when we finally arrived at the surgeon's office. I had to fill out some forms before going in. It didn't take very long. Then a nurse called me into the room where my surgery was gonna take place. My mum came with me. The nurse explained what they were gonna do and what would happen afterwards. And she gave me sunglasses and a giant bib thingy. I wasn't as anxious as I thought I would be. But my anxiety went up a little bit after my mum was sent back into the waiting room and the nurse left the room.
I was left in the room for half an hour. Apparently the doctor was performing surgery on someone else. So my anxiety level rose a bit. Too much time alone to think about things. Ugh. But the doctor finally came in. He repeated everything the nurse told me, but added more details. Then two nurses came in and he got the IV ready. I was relaxed, but it didn't last for long. The IV hurt really bad. It felt like my entire arm was on fire. I don't know what was in it...but fucking hell...it burned so badly. But I only felt it for thirty seconds, because I passed out after that.
The entire thing felt like it only took five minutes, but it was almost an hour. I don't remember passing out and I don't remember waking up. I just remember sitting in the recovery room. And I was really high and my face was numb. I kept laughing. Not sure why. There is a short video of it on Instagram if you wanna see. Its kinda funny, haha. But anyways, they gave me my wisdom teeth in a little package. The top two came out in one piece, but the bottom two came out in pieces. I guess that is normal (according to the doctor). The bottom left tooth was the worst. They couldn't even get all of it out! And that part of my mouth hurts the most too. But they gave me a prescription for Tylenol 3 with Codeine before I left. :P
My mum got us a taxi home. I was too high to walk. And as soon as we got home, she got me a bowl of strawberry ice cream, then headed back out to get my prescription and run a few errands. I rested and drank water while I waited for her. And thankfully she came back right before the freezing wore off. But the pills weren't that great to begin with. I could still feel some pain. But I'm sure I'd feel a lot more if I didn't have the pills. Also, I decided to stop taking my medication while taking the painkillers (I didn't want to risk a bad reaction between pills). Oh and not long after that; the doorbell rang and it was the mail man with a package for me! It turned out to be the Halloween care package from my grandmother. She sent me so many lovely things! It cheered me up, but I was kinda sad that I couldn't eat any of the candy. D:
I was in complete misery after that. It didn't help that the leftover bit of tooth on the bottom left fell out and I swallowed it. But I felt a bit better after my step dad brought me chilli for supper. It brought my energy up quite a bit. So filling! But yeah...my whole evening and night was awful. I was uncomfortable and nauseous. :'(
day two: vomiting
Thursday, October 17th, 2013
Yeah, that's right...I vomited. My mum accidentally woke me up at 4:30 am (by being loud). As soon as I woke up, I instantly felt horrible pain and took two painkillers. I should have thought it through first. Because I forgot that I have to eat before taking them. They are very hard on the stomach. So I rushed out to the kitchen and my mum made me breakfast. Halfway through eating, I looked down and instantly knew I was gonna be sick. I ran to the bathroom and sat on the side of the tub for a few minutes. But nothing. So I went back to try and finish my breakfast. But I felt nauseous again. So once again, I ran to the bathroom and sat on the side of the tub. This time the feeling was more intense and I ended up vomiting after a few minutes. Five times. :(
I actually felt a lot better after vomiting, so I finished my breakfast and went to lay down. I noticed how puffy my cheeks were. I felt like a chipmunk. Ahhh. I ended up falling asleep until 4:00 pm. My step dad picked me up some more chili for supper, since it was one of the only things I could really eat. I was pretty happy about that. And my dad sent me an email with a picture of the David Lynch painting that he painted for my birthday! Its exactly how I imagined it! I'm so excited to get it! :D ♥
The only other exciting thing that happened was watching the new episode of American Horror Story: Coven. Its getting so intense! I'm starting to like it a bit more. Can't wait for the next episode! Anyways, the rest of my day was both awful and boring. Stupid wisdom teeth. :'(
day three: bye nausea
Friday, October 18th, 2013
I woke up around 8:30 am and couldn't go back to sleep due to pain. I suffered through until I finished eating a large breakfast, then I took my pill. And not long after that...oh my fuck...so much nausea. I had to rub my upper lip (apparently its an attention spot for nausea), until I fell asleep. I briefly woke up when my mum texted me and asked if I needed anything (she was at the mall). So I told her to find a pharmacist and ask them what I could do for nausea while taking Tylenol 3 with Codeine. Then I fell asleep again.
She came back with Gravol and told me that the pharmacist suggested it. So I gave it a shot. And guess what!? It worked! No nausea! I was so happy! I took a very long bath/shower that night for the first time in days. It felt so amazing to get all cleaned up. I was planning on spending my night watching TV until I passed out, but my mum came home from work and bitched about our landlord for a couple hours. She is thinking about finding another apartment for us. I wouldn't mind to be honest. I don't like this apartment. Its got a depressing vibe. Oh and someone deleted my recordings of Ghost Adventures and I was pissed. I had been looking forward to it all day. Ugh. -_-
day four: a visitor
Saturday, October 19th, 2013
I noticed early in the day that my cheeks were starting to bruise. Not too noticeable, but its bothering me a bit (even though that is supposed to happen). Anyways, the only interesting thing that happened on this day, was my lovely boyfriend BJ coming over. He arrived around supper time with chilli, a chocolate bar and Ben & Jerry's ice cream. He is so sweet! We watched The Simpsons and talked. He couldn't stay long though (he had to go to his aunt's play). But that was fine. I'm just happy he came to see me. :3
BJ had a party at his house that night. I wish I could have gone. Most of my best friends were there. Ugh. But they messaged me anyways, which cheered me up. So yeah...I was gonna go to bed early, but my mum came home from work and talked to me for a couple hours again. Really seems like she needs someone to talk to. This time she bitched about my step dad and made me feel insecure about my own life. I was kinda annoyed because I wanted to watch Scary Movie and go to bed. Which I finally got to do around 2:00 am.
day five: feeling better
Sunday, October 20th, 2013
Today I've finally started feeling better. Not well enough to do a whole lot. But well enough that I don't feel the need to complain a whole lot, LOL! However, I did notice that the left side of my face is hurting more than the right side. Hmmm. I'm sure its nothing too major. Oh and I put $20 into my PayPal, which should go through on the 28th. Not entirely sure what I'm using it for yet. But I did use up the last bit of money in my PayPal to order another Deathly Hallows (Harry Potter) necklace. It was only 97 cents! ^_^
I almost forgot; something really creepy happened...some random creep started texting me. He got the wrong number, but he keeps asking for my name and age. I've told him to fuck off multiple times, but he won't. I'm just not replying anymore. Ugh. What is wrong with some people!? Unfortunately no one I know recognized the number. I hope he stops soon. I don't wanna pay money to get a number blocked. :/
Well, I'm gonna head to bed. I gotta wake up early for my appointment at 9:00 am with my psychiatrist. I hope I'm not in too much pain to go! I hate rescheduling things. :P
