Overdue

So, I know a post to follow up since my surgery has been uber delayed but, hey I am slow what can I say?

I had my surgery the 25th of February and let me tell you it was BRUTAL! I was supposed to have IV sedation but, the dentist couldn’t find a vein after numerous tries so I had to be awake for the whole thing and honestly there was not enough novacaine for parts of it. Then, I was ushered out the back door without paper aftercare instructions much less any extra gauze. I am so glad that the dick dentist is not my actual dentist! Yes, I did call and complain about my treatment to the main branch of the dental office plus my insurance carrier.

The recovery has been pretty killer as well. I was popping the vicodin at the max dose 2 pills every 4 hours for a good 5 days. Of course I couldn’t really eat much besides applesauce & cottage cheese so trying to get enough food in me to make sure that I didn’t feel sick from the pain meds and the antibiotics was a chore.

I battled that out until last Friday when I had to go to Cleveland Ohio for vendor showcase for work. I live about 4 to 41/2 hours away from Cleveland so we1 had to start driving at 5:30am to get there by 10am. The drive went pretty fast and my mouth didn’t bother me too much but, I did make sure to take 1 vicodin pill every 4 hours to stay on top of my pain2. The showcase went really well! I walked out with more product knowledge then I thought I would gain3 and brought home goodies galore. I came home with bags from MD Science Labs / Swiss Navy, Pipedream, Lelo4, and even my companies branded stuff.

I also met a lot of the corporate people that I deal with every week, toured our warehouse and got some one on one face time with the owner of the company. They vendors also had lunch catered but, sadly I was sitting in a corner eating my applesauce like it was going out of style. We left after 4 pm and end up getting home by 9:30pm and I was passed out way before 10pm.

I have more to write about me getting an assistant manager at work but, there is so not enough time for me to keep sitting here in Bruegger’s5 to write that all up.

  1. Recovering from surgery always takes so much out of you. Those IV's are such a killer. But, it's good to see that you're getting through it. :)
