i wanna say goodbye to enemy, evil wisdom tooth!

today is the first time i am not frightened to walk into a dental clinic.
i was even punctual for my appointment.
usual times, i am even scared and get nervous thinking about it even though i know it is merely a routine check and cleaning.
today, i walked head on into the clinic, determined to get rid of my evil enemy which caused me so much misery for the past four nights.

this morning, i woke up and saw a swell on my left lower cheek. really "ke wu"! ponstan was not helping me much last night, i was awaken by that persistent pain and my upper row of teeth felt numb. i have problem eating and food no love has become food no want. i keep biting onto the raw gum on my left much as i try to eat on my right.
Alas! this enemy is gonna stay with me for another 2weeks before i can get rid of it!!
just when i built up that confidence and guts from anger and furstrations accumulated for the past five days, the dentist told me today is not an appropriate time to do the surgery! cos in this condition that i am, we have to tame down that infection, let the swell goes, so that the pain factor is reduced to the max when he perform the surgery couple week later.
i guess this is best for me too... but i only worry that by the time the swell subsides and everything is "okay" once again, my guts would be that of a mouse!

my family is appalled at this swell on my face. there is even a slight bruise which my bro pointed out. and only the blind can't see. boss thought i had already extracted my wisdom tooth which explained that swell on my cheek when i went to get free drugs. My Goodness, NO! this evil is staying with me during this period of time while i feed myself with antibiotics, painkillers and anti-inflamatory drugs.

Yes, wisdom tooth is the culprit and my number one enemy! those who have been through will be able to relate with me! those who hasn't before can never understand the angst i am going through. i don't entertain jokes now cos it's not funny at all!

suddenly, i thought of Adr. she really has high threshold of the pain two years ago to be able to wait till she cleared her school stuff before she went for the surgery! Beb, i salute you! You brave girl!
