My experience of 1 week post extraction

Hey all, first of i wanna say that this place has been really helpful in keeping my anxiety levels at low. Its been super nice reading the past and current experiences of people that are in the same boat as me!

I thought i'd share my experience so far 1 week after getting all 4 wisdom teeth removed plus another 2 that were in rough shape. I'm on the spectrum and have very high anxiety so the dentist was always my worst enemy. My lower 2 wisdom teeth were slightly out and were starting to develop cavities, while my upper 2 werent out but were straight. I had all 4 removed under general anasthesia last friday and i also had 2 mostly broken teeth that were very hard to take out. The dentist told my mom afterwards that all my wisdom teeth were extremely hard to removed and he apparently spent around 5 hours removing all 6 teeth. I have not been back as the making of this post but i plan on getting an appointment next week. The first days werent too bad, lots of swelling and a bit of bleeding. Starting at around day 4 i get to feel my tongue again but only on one side and the bleeding has stopped. Day 5 im getting better so i try to eat solid food. Terrible mistake i can barely open wide enough to fit in small bites and i keep biting my tongue while chewing. Im starting to get some pain and very bad sleep during thst night. Day 6 i still can't feel the left side of my tongue and every time i swallow i feel some pain so i go investigate and i feel something very sharp on the inner side of my bottom left extraction site. I am fully on tylenol every 4 hours and painkillers prescribed by the dentist now cause without them i can't think. Now on day 7 and i'm still pretty much the same as yesterday, i have pain without my meds and the left side of my tongue really hurts now when i swallow so im waiting for a call back from the dentist to get an appointement. I think i may have a bit of bone or something stuck on the outher side of my extraction side, it feels very sharp and very stuck in place. My mood is probably at its lowest today, i tried eating some solid food and i just can't, im tired of this and i know its gonna get better but its hard to see the end when it feels like im not getting any better.

Anyways thanks for reading my experience/rant, this place is really great and thank you to everyone who shares their experience!
