*ouch* more teeth woes and moanyness!
Jan. 12th, 2008 04:45 pmThese fucking wisdom teeth of mine are going to drive me nuts! The painkillers don't even work anymore, and they are so painful I can barely eat anything more than soup. Thank God I have finally got my first dental surgery appointment through (1st of the 2 times I have to go), on January 25th. So I am counting the days to that (although it means I wont be able to see Sweeney Todd in the cinema the day it comes out, which I have been waiting for for ages, dammit!).
Because of my extreme needle phobia they're going to use gas anaesthetic, which I am slightly anxious about. I've never been under gas anaesthetic before, and they have warned me that there is a slightly elevated risk of something going wrong due to me having asthma... but if it'll stop the pain, without me having to have needles, then it's a risk I'm willing to take!
Also, kinda anxious about leaving the house again. Although I was doing alright with my agoraphobia for a while, I've had a slight relapse. I haven't been outside since before December, since I just can't stand going out into the Christmas/New Year chaos and crowds. So it's going to be tough to take that first step of going back outside again for my dental appointment.
So at the moment I am pretty ambivalent about the whole thing. On the one hand I'd give anything to stop this fucking pain, and therefore an happy about the dental appointment. On the other hand I am anxious about the gas anaesthetic and having to go outside and interact with people (2 things which I am no good at at the best of times!), so I am dreading it. Argh! The dilemma!
In more cheery news, I had a good Christmas, spent it with my mum and brother. Got some nice stuff, including the Hot Fuzz 3-disc DVD *squee!* I didn't think it was possible for me to love that film more than I already did, but now that I've watched the hours of extras, I do. I also got the Green Wing boxset and The Mighty Boosh live DVD, a few graphic novels and a wolf calendar.
Well, that's all the ranting I'll be doing for now, sorry, hate to be such a miserable, moaning git! Hopefully I'll be feeling better after I get my teeth done, so until then,
Stay Beautiful,
Aissa.
P.S. Sorry if I don't reply quickly to you if you message me or comment on anything. I'm having some issues with my depression at the moment (probably not helped by my teeth woes), so I tend to come online less when I'm like this. I will reply to anything as soon as I can.
