Hello Nana babe and Su. I just had my wisdom teeth removed :) Yeah, all 4 of them and that was all actually. So nothing quite so serious took place. I know it's a bit of a misinformation there with the pic and all. I'm so sorry. As of now, I haven't really recovered from the surgery, much less have the strength to update this post. So keep checking this blog out and I hope I'll recover in no time to keep posted. So till then, take care. Thank you so much for dropping by.

su said...

MAN, got me MEGA worried! just lay in bed and get well soon!

kenji's housewife said...

haha. yeah, I will, Su. Though it seems like the recovery is taking place real slowly because of the inability to use this thing called THE MOUTH. So I haven't been able to eat proper food since the surgery and have been so depressed lately :(

su said...

understood! stick to porridge first ah. just telan. why you cabut all four anyways?

kenji's housewife said...

haha. have been telan-ing lah nie sampai sakit perut pasal ada makanan yang besar sikit yang tak digigit. eh, you seem to know about this, you had your wisdom teeth removed jugak ke?

With regards to removing all 4 - well, it seems like it is 'automatic' here in singapore. I requested for 1 but they said they will remove all 4 since I have them all developed. Kenji did ask the surgeon why (remove all 4), but no answers were given. I read up somewhere online and it says that dentists prefer to have all 4 wisdom teeth removed at one go so that patient does not have to go through multiple anaesthetics. I don't know...

su said...

AHAHAHAHAH. i can pass off like i know such info eh? AHAHAHAHHA. no lahhh. mulut sakit, makan bubur ah! LOL. and doc say cabut four, you cabut four? AHAHAHAHAH. neymind. at least no need to go through it again! :D

kenji's housewife said...

yeah, all at one go is not too bad. well, at least that was what I thought. my wisdom teeth were so senget, already a problem on its own. and I thought if I have to do it sooner or later, I might as well do it now that I am still young and can survive g.a. without much problem. :)

hmmm....I'm not actually an expert on wisdom tooth. But I extracted 2 of it in 2 diffrnt occasion. I dont belive in extracting them all out in 1 go wen its not in any way causing any inconvenience at any point.
So anyway...I got 1 out when I was 18 and another one just like about a year ago. The other 2..its still in my mouth and no incovenience caused, so far that I know of :)
And with that....I know how it feels extracting 1 wisdom tooth....but 4 in 1 go....MasyaAllah...you ARE strong!!
*I tink giving birth is easier LOL*
Get Well Soon!

Kenji's housewife said...

MC, yeah, I agree with you. I didn't and still don't believe in removing any parts of me that (1) grows naturally (like wisdom teeth) and that (2) does not cause any problem in me, particularly in relation to health. This is because I have always believed that 'these things' exist in a person's body for one reason or another. Also, removing any of 'these things' may cause a person more harm, which may be medically unknown, than good. But I did it any way, and that was after much, much contemplation. And all I am hoping now is that I won't regret over the decision I have made :)

Hmm, but is giving birth really easier?? I was just talking about it with mum and sis earlier today, and ended up feeling really scared about the stitching up part (after delivery). I thought I was lucky I was still able to escape pain when my gums were cut up and stitched back. I was on g.a. then. But as for stitching after delivery, all mothers are conscious, no?

I'm not a mother yet and I'm not too sure if I'm strong and brave enough to face all that! Do you think I can be on g.a. just for the stitching up part?? *winks*

MinahC said...

hmmm....actually its a diffrnt experience for any mothers on delivery. For me I had natural birth for both but its 2 difrnt experience.

My daughter (2.6kg), since it was my first delivery, I just agree on anyting they want to giv me. The jab on the leg and laughing gas. And I did need stitches for my tear. In short it WAS REALLY an experience *winks*

My son (3.2kg), I specifically said 'NO' to watever jabs or gas. And I didnt require any stitches & there was no tear, Alhamdulilah.

My advise, if possibly can...have a natural birth rather den go for that C-sect. The first might sound painful but the latter takes a longer time to heal and its stil may cause pains even after healing.

BTW....dey do give a local during the stitching up of the tear...but u stil nid to bear with it though ;)
