3-4. Dental surgery recovery varies from day to day. I was much better yesterday but the 800 mg. Ibuprofen causes digestive problems even though I follow instructions to "Take With Food." I stopped taking it at 9:30 am today & I have to put up with severe pain in gums, sinuses, ear, eye & head. Upper teeth extractions have a more painful recovery. And, of course lying down means more blood to the head which means more pain.
I'm lucky to sleep 1-2 hours/night. And without molars, I'm getting tired of yogurt & watermelon. I had to force myself to eat anything today due to nausea; blood sugar keeps dropping.
