update on my wisdom teeth... I got them out this morning and I was so scared. The one nurse held my hand because I've never had surgery before and she told me I looked terrified. The nurses talked me through everything while they were doing it. Over all I'm proud of myself for not canceling and I did it anyways. It honestly wasn't as bad as I was worried it would be thank God. I'm happy they won't be bothering me anymore. I'm in a bit of pain, I was lucky the teeth were already out from the gums and came out easily. So yeah now I'm on a liquid diet for 24 hours.

      I love surgery lol. It's literally the only time it feels like I've slept....even if the surgery is only like half hour

      Personal story from when I got mine removed. So majority of your face is a sinus cavity and for me when I got mine removed my top wisdom teeth the roots were in my sinus cavity. Ps sorry for making it about me

      That's awesome to hear!! I've never had surgery myself and I'm terrified for when I might eventually need it aha

        @Motley same! I have a fear of surgery. I'm not good with medical things. I'm kinda glad that it was just my wisdom teeth because I built it so much worse in my head and it was actually not that bad of an experience oddly. I'm still hoping I don't have to have major surgery that's still a big fear
