Weight Loss Surgery or Death
The original name of this blog was Weight Loss Surgery or Death - One Man’s Journey from Morbid Obesity to a New Life. While I do plan on talking about my Morbid Obesity the focus of the blog has changed some. See "About My Journey Page" in the About Menu for more information.
Off to bed, still in lots of pain.
I have been in extreme pain most of the night, but now that I have a couple doses of the Vicodin in my system the pain level is much better, still worse than yesterday, but much better. My body may also be adjusting to the side effects because while I was not able to focus enough to work on my final project, I was able to stay awake and do a little studying for my finals next week. I also found eating very difficult tonight. Not only pain, but it was also hard to open my mouth wide enough to eat.
I am heading off to bed now and I really hope I am able to get some sleep, I really need it. I am just worried that between the pain and my growing anxiety level over my final project that sleep may be a dream..

Dental Surgery, Part 4
I am still in extreme pain I just got off the phone with my dentist. He called in a prescription for a second stronger antibiotic. He also told me that I need to take the Vicodin and I need to take it as prescribed (every six hours), it is the only pay I managing the pain. I took it a few hours ago and so far it has done nothing. I am going to do it, but the side effects are going to make it very hard to get my final project done and to study for finals.
I also just called and set up an appointment with the dental surgeon he referred me to. They can’t get me in before next Tuesday (Feb 21st, 2012). Counting the Vicodin there is know way I have enough.

Dental Surgery, Part 3
Doctor was not able to extract my tooth and I am in extreme pain. He is sending me to a different doctor, but I can’t get in until next week and I don’t think I can afford it. I was planning on writing a longer post now, but I am hurting so bad I can’t do it.
How the hell am I going to get my school work done?

Dental Surgery, Part 1
I just got to the dentist office and they said they will be ready for me in just a moment, right on time. It is kind of funny I am really nervous right now, approaching an Anxiety attack, but it is not over the dental surgery itself, but if I am going to get my class project done tonight. I am working on getting in to a PhD program and I really need to get an A in this class.
Looks like they are ready for me, more later.

Looking forward to the dentist today. No Really!!!!
I am having a very unproductive morning.
I did not sleep much last night and this morning the pain in my tooth is so bad that I can’t focus on my schoolwork or anything else I wanted to get done this morning. I have pain meds, but I have not taking them this morning because I want to have a clear head so I could work on my paper which I can’t work on because of the pain. A nasty little circle!!!
I don’t know how I am going to be feeling after the surgery, but I really hope I will be able to work on my paper. If I don’t get the powerpoint done tonight that is fine, but I need to get the paper done!!!

Not a bad day, time to get some sleep.
Even though I have been in pain all day long I was able to get a lot done today on my class project today. Right now I have about 90% of the paper part complete and about 50% of the PowerPoint part. If I am going to have time to study for finals this weekend I need to get the project done tomorrow.
Normally I would not see any problem with getting the project done tomorrow, but I am having dental surgery tomorrow at 12:45pm. I am really worried I am not going to be feeling well enough to get the project done afterwords.
I REALLY HOPE I CAN SLEEP TONIGHT!!!! I AM GOING TO NEED ALL THE ENERGY I CAN MUSTER TOMORROW!!!!

It is morning – Dammit!!!
Last was a real bad night. The pain in my tooth was off the chart which made it really hard to sleep. I took the pain meds from the doctor, I took some liquid over the counter pain meds, and I even took a natural sleep aid, but I still did not sleep. I would love to try to get some sleep this morning, but I can’t. I need to get this class project done. It is due in just a few days (Sunday).
So time I have taking my morning meds, drink a 5-hour Energy Drink, and a glass of OJ and get to work. Sadly no pain meds I need a clear head.
- Penicillin
- Vitamin C
- Vitamin D
- Iron
Crap I don’t even know if my computer is going to boot!!
