> [@Lobsang](#): > > How are your teeth **Silver Fire**? > (badum, tish) Oh, I feel great. I’m living on Dannon Light 'n Fit yogurt smoothies and fake potatoes with powder gravy, but I feel fine. I only vomitted once (in the dentist’s parking lot right after it was all over) and I’ve only felt mildly queezy since, but that’s probably the vicodin. Hydrocodone makes me ill and the surgeon said his license doesn’t permit him to prescribe oxycodone (percocet), so I had a choice of hydrocodone, or Tylenol 3s (which I already have, and they wouldn’t do much good anyway). So I got Vicodin 7.5/750 and Motrin 800mg. I also got antibiotics the size of my face. 😃 I changed my guaze just three times before I stopped bleeding. I didn’t wake up with dried blood on my face or in my mouth or anything. I have had a lot of sinus leakage, and my face isn’t very swollen at all. My jaw hurts, especially on the right because I have a giant gash on the inside of my cheek. ☹ But I can eat, and I can speak now, so it’s all good. Thanks for helping lift my spirits, guys! Oh and, yes, by all means, ask for the joke to any punchlines you might not be familiar with. It can only make the thread more amusing, after all. 🙂 ---

> [@Silver Fire](#): > > I have had a lot of sinus leakage, and my face isn’t very swollen at all. Rather, I have **not** had a lot of sinus leakage. Sorry, it’s the ridiculously strong vicodin. I did trade 8 of them to my mom for some weaker pills (still vicodin, but only 5/500) to limit the extreme high that comes with these. If those work well enough, I’ll probably trade the rest off to her, as well. I really don’t like feeling this way. ---
