You got Oxycotin ???? that's for cancer pain!!!!! your surgeon must be veryyyyy popular. |
Oxycocet actually, I was told by my dentist in layman's terms it was like a cross or both of (or something like that) between Oxycontin and Percocet. |

I remember it vividly. Laying on the table, they squeezed a syrine the size of a turkey baster full of white, pearlescent goo into the IV and I started counting down. All of a sudden I felt like I was looking up at them from the bottom of a pool and then out. ED. UP. DREAMS...prolly had something to do with the oral landscaping going on. I would (hypothetically) liken it to a k-hole.
Oh, and my jaw hurt for weeks from having been clamped open. I was under for about three hours. |

still sounds strong. Then again, I got a mixture of percocet and vicodin. percodan it may have been called.
I remember the surgeon asking me about my tolerance for painkillers/meds....I also remember waking up from general anesthesia to the force of my teeth being chipped like DAS', then seeing the knob on the IV turned, then zzzzzzzzz.
I hope you have dental Leon, the GA is really the most expensive part of the procedure. |

oh man hah for sure.. I just took a motrin pill and got all dizzy, I couldn't believe I started losing my balance from just one pill!
Does this means I have a low tolerance for all drugs? I know it takes me very little to get drunk but I'll probably be down for the count when they drug me |

A friend of mine had to have hers cut in half before removal.
They also tried to put her under for it, but apparently she felt everything all while unable to move or say anything.
So when are yours coming out? |
LOL! |

no
they can come out at any age, 35 for my Mum
but they form early, and can be visible at any panoramic jaw X-ray |
