[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the PP. Another thing is that I heard that anesthesia makes you sick. This is not true. I just felt a little groggy the first day- but none of the medications or anesthesia made me feel nauseous or out of control or anything like that. [/quote] Anesthesia meds can make people feel sick (its a known side effect) so they usually give anti-nausea meds before people wake up to decrease any side effects they may have. To answer another PP, I have (unfortunately) had surgery several times and have never dreamed while under anesthesia. OP, the anesthesia they usually use in an oral surgeons office puts people in a "twilight" sleep. You'll probably wake up pretty quickly and not feel groggy for too long. It's the same type of sedation they use for a lot of medical procedures that don't require general anesthesia (endoscopies). I would recommend making ice packs out of a 50/50 solution of rubbing alcohol and water. The rubbing alcohol wont allow the water to freeze completely, so they conform well to the face. Alternating heat and ice (20 min of each) can sometimes speed up the healing process. Good luck! [/quote]
