I'm back and I can't feel my face.

I'm back from the dentist and I can't feel anything on the left side of my face! I can't even feel my ear!
I called DH when I got out of the office on my cell phone and totally couldn't even feel the phone on my ear.
Now I'm uber thirsty and have to use a straw, but when I drink I can only feel it on the right side.


:thumbdown: I need lunch but am afraid I'm gonna chomp my tongue in two. LOL
 
That's what a blender's for. Hit McD's, blend it up, and you've got a healthy/nutricious meal (muwahahahahahaha)

Seriously - I *heart* milk shakes when I've had dental work. The cold is good to help swelling, and they just taste darned good when you don't feel so hot.
 
you survived! a milkshake sounds like just what you need (unless you are lactose intolerant)
 
OMG that's the worst Mandy! Especially when you feel like you're drooling all over yourself and you keep wiping your face, but there's nothing there.

Mmmmmmm chocolate milkshake!!
 
Mandy, I have to laugh at the vision of your description! LOL. Play sick and let others do stuff for you!!! Soup....mmmmm....

Yeah, not a good idea. I tried to eat once after dental work and did bite my tongue pretty good (and I wasn't as numb as you sound). Milkshake is a great idea! I'm in the mood for one too! LOL!

Glad it's over with!!

ROFL! I JUST DID THAT!
I was like....am I drooling? *wipe*
Nah...guess not!

:D
 
I'll be gross.

When I was a kid, I had a lot of work done and had that feeling - and it was the whole of my face, not just one side. I have a habit of biting my lip when I'm nervous.

Seriously.

I was chewing on my lip on the way home not realizing it, and my mom screamed..what is all that blood?!

I had bit a hole in my lip - huge one, and never felt it and couldn't taste the blood. I have a big scar right on the inside of my lip. It's so not fun.
 
Poor Darcy! Ow! I bit a huge chunk out of the inside of my cheek after I had some teeth removed for braces. Seriously it bled everywhere. I hate that frozen mouth feeling and the drooling LOL.

Milkshakes Mandy! Milkshakes! LOL

LMAO at the drool!

I hate when you smile and realize that it's only half a smile! Hope it gets better Mandy!
