Welcome to Gaia! ::

I hope you're doing okay, quiet honestly now that after today I'll be im the hospital I'm relieved the waiting is over. That alone was the hardrst and tiday even more so hard, I can't eat.
I can only have liquids under doctors orders, I shpuld be able to get my dentures in a week after my gums heal up. For now I'm drugged on hydrocodones to keep me relaxed.

I take them when the pain starts up and to help me relax. I'm eager to not have to deal with them anymore, now I can just brush my dentures every night before bed and rinse my mouth out and brush my gums.

Since it's getting closer to monday now? I'm relaxing instantly, my nurse and Doctor BOTH talked to my Mom and he said he'd be the one doing the surgery. So at least I know my doctor.

You'll be okay. The important thing is to relax. More than likely somebody nice will put you under and you'll be introduced to them beforehand. You can ask them exactly what they're going to do and they should explain easily to you to ease your nerves. Afterwards you'll wake up and might be in some pain, but you can express to them about your pain and they'll help you with pain management (if you can't talk, you can write it down). Since its oral surgery, you may be held overnight in recovery. This is fine, too. Treat it like a hotel. You'll do fine. If you have an IV, I suggest getting it put on the wrist of the hand that you don't write with because this makes it very manageable, better than any other position in my experience since its out of the way and not miles up your arm.
