tmi ahoy!
Getting my wisdom teeth out was one of the best things that happened to me. 8D; I got them all out in one operation when I was about 16 but I had to go off all my meds before the procedure. This meant I was also off hormonal pills and I ended up getting my period which also meant the horrible cramps I am plagued with every month. The Tylenol 3 they'd prescribed did nothing for any of my pain. So I went back to the orthodontist and I was prescribed percocet to help me deal and not only did it totally fix the pain in my mouth, but my cramps were gone too. :') Percocet has been my painkiller of choice ever since. It's pretty much the only thing I've ever found that works, despite trying tons of other medications. (Yeah, it's not ideal, but oh well.)
Also, I thought going under for the procedure was pretty much the coolest thing that ever happened to me. They were leaning in to start when the anesthesia set in and I remember thinking "oh god oh god I'm still awake don't start" and what felt like literally the same second, I was being ushered out of the chair and into the side room to recover. Neato!
