Five vicodin? That's just stupid

You should at least be able to have some left over..in case of an emergency, of course

That's what I had Betsi! It just makes me feel yucky, thinking about cutting into the roof of the mouth. I hope mine works as well.

When they were talking about getting the transplant ready, and it was a little piece of my gum, I thought it was so funny.

It seems like it took the roof of my mouth longer to heal than it did the actual site that it was placed. Of course I couldn't keep my tongue away from it. lol! Take care of yourself!

Oh Judy... Gum surgery.. does it ever end??? I feel for you g/f. Vicodin never worked for me just made me feel like I was in la la land. lol what help me with the pain was Motrin the heavy duty prescribed stuff.

I hope that the gum takes and your be smiling again. I know from experience that when you start with dental work it never ends . The dentists are like mechanics they always find something wrong and want to replace lol.

Feel better!!

The roof of the mouth takes forever to heal! I once burnt the top/center with a hot french fry and I couldn't really eat for a month. They did this on the side, and they stitched it. The stitches last about a day. My tongue got at them.

Gina, you are right. 3 advil is the best. The first couple of days I took 1/2 vicodin at night.

I certainly hope you don't have pain and that you heal quickly. I just couldn't imagine.

How is your mouth feeling today?

My mouth is healing, but I don't know if this worked. The gum that they transplanted is white, which doesn't seem good to me. If the transplant took, there would be blood flow and it would be pinker.

It worked, it worked, it worked. If I keep saying it, maybe it will be true

It's just hard to eat and the roof of my mouth hurts if anything touches it. I don't even need aspirin though. I just have to be careful not to touch any of it.

Oh, Judy, so hope that it works!!!!!! When do you go back for them to check it?
