I have a feeling these scenarios are very different by patient, so claiming you shouldn't need painkillers or you can eat peanuts on the way home is certainly not the norm

Yeah, I was just spitting out blood for eight hours afterwards, and then life went on as normal for me (which is a good thing, because the pain killers they gave me had no effect on me).

I've had two and they hurt like mother fucking hell! :Q

(The dentist gave me a shot, scraped the bone (to make it bleed and form a new clot) and then re-packed it). Still hurt like hell for another 3 days! 🙁

I remember, I'm still finding gummy bear bits in areas you should never find gummy bear bits.

You girly men don't know the meaning of pain. Come back after you have had 10 wisdom teeth removed. At the same time. Then cry.

I smoked in the evening after getting mine pulled during the day, but was careful to drag real lightly on the cig. Never had a problem. I actually didn't mind getting mine out, got scripted with hydrocodone. I should see if they want to pull anymore teeth out.

you need to have more teeth extracted? like back teeth or front ones?

i get teeth pulled all the time for the drugs too. WOOT!

only... i'm almost out of teef. 🙁
 
definitely varies for each person.

On the ride home I could start to feel whatever they put me under wear off and I told my parents that I was going to need that prescription filled asap.

We get home - dad goes to get pain killers - mom who is a doctor stays with me.

Whatever I was under wears off and the most intense pain of my life hits me. I start to turn blue from hyperventilating the pain was so extreme and so sudden. Luckily, dad comes in soon after - take couple vicodin and all is well. Didn't need pain medication the rest of the time - just that first initial OH MY GOD IT WORE OFF scenario.

I feel for ya though...stitches in your mouth are weird as hell too
