Hmmm...I've only had one of mine out (because it was hurting a bit as it was coming in), but maybe I should have them all taken. The one that I had taken out was actually one of the bottom ones, and my other bottom one felt similarly painful as it was coming in, but I put off taking it out (I had a lot going on with school at the time), and then it seemed to come in straight. You have me scared now though, especially since my dentist was concerned before it came in, since it seemed to be positioned at a weird angle.
Mine had already erupted, so my oral surgeon just gave me novocaine, and then pulled it. I didn't really feel anything, and since it was only on one side, I was able to eat pretty well. I insisted that my mother take me to Chick-fil-a afterward, and then to the mall - LOL. Looking back, the mall was probably not the best idea, since I still had the gauze in my mouth, and the blood started to make me nauseous.
I remember that the dentist prescribed some painkillers to me, but they made me feel bad, so I only took them once. I can't remember the exact symptoms, but I think that I felt like my heart was beating really rapidly.
I actually went to my then-boyfriend's college the next night and attended a basketball game, and I wasn't even taking Advil anymore.
Is your oral surgeon okay with you waiting until next week to have yours removed? I'm certainly not an expert, but it seems like it's a bad idea to wait, especially considering the agony that you're in. In any case, I hope that you experience some relief soon!
Oh, and btw, why do all of these horrible things always happen over holiday weekends? I suddenly developed the worst UTI of my life early Sunday morning, and I had never experienced anything like it before. I thought that I could wait until today to see a doctor, but after a few hours, it became very apparent that I would never make it! I ended up going to urgent care for an antibiotics prescription, and I'm feeling much better now - but wow. I never understood the pain that other women talk about until now.
