I had my wisdom teeth taken out ONE AT A TIME.
So I thought I was pretty used to that but the last operation was worse than all of the first 3 put together.
The tooth (upper right one) was veeery large and had a nasty hook at the end which made the removal pretty difficult. I have never, ever screamed while at a doctor's but this time I did, several times and with feeling, because it felt like the surgeon was trying to wrench of my jaw while wrenching out the tooth.
Advanced medicine my arse. It's just anaesthetic, one cut and then using a fucking steel hook. I never felt the cuts, of course, but the pressure on my jaw bones was so fucking painful, even through all the drugging that I couldn't help but scream.
More surgery stories?
Had my appendix taken out years ago, only hours before it was about to burst through my stomach wall. How do organs wander, exactly? I have no idea, but thats whats happened.
I had never felt a pain like it before the surgery, and obviously none like it afterwards. Also, the dose of anaesthetic was so large that it took me months to fully recovery from that..
Still, much better than death, which is what the doctor smilingly promised was the alternative, so I will not complain.
