I'm home, and have been asleep all day. There's relatively little pain as long as I don't open my mouth or swallow. Eating is going to be fun, but Lis DID make me drink a yogurt drink before she left for work. That's the only thing I've had to eat or drink all day, and I probably SHOULD eat more, but I don't wanna.
My jaw is sore, but I have been managing to take my painkillers and penicillin on schedule, even though I'm really supposed to take them with food. However, I've had no nausea with them.
In any case, it WAS done under general anesthesia rather than heavy sedation. I was offered the choice of either, and I went for general, and I think it was probably the right choice for me.
I'm going to sleep for the rest of the evening, and tonight, and probably most of tomorrow. I'll probably be really hungry in the morning, and we've planned out things I can eat -- things like a room-temperature can of chicken broth, which sounds really gross under normal conditions, but sounds good to me.
