Comment on POV: You're too shy to tell the medical staff that you just woke up during surgery.
fellow_human@sh.itjust.works 1 week agoI also had local anesthesia when my wisdom teeth were removed. I had 4 of them, like most people. Still was a horrorshow for me, because I didn’t manage to stop the bleeding after the removal. Ended up in the ER because I swallowed too much blood. Was my own fault, and I hope I learned from it to follow medical instructions more.

Oh yeah, the first several hours were a living nightmare. I could not stop the bleeding either and left my bathroom looking like a murderer scene. Ttankfully I managed to avoid going to the ER.
