SHIP'S LOG:
So far, so good. No real pain from the extraction. The first day I took a Vicodin before the anesthetic wore off and after that I have just been taking ADVIL. Like I said, no real pain and actually very little discomfort. The bleeding stop very quickly and there has been very little swelling. As a result I don't look like a chipmunk getting ready for a hard winter.
If I make through Friday then the chances of the infamous "dry socket " with it attendant pain will have passed. Electric tooth brushing and water-picking are a little difficult but doable. So things are good.
not having to take the narco-meds means I was able to do a shift on the launch yesterday. I have another one come Saturday and I foresee no problems with that one either. This was so much fun, maybe I'll have the other three pulled! NAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
