Oh by no means do I think that APAP & Ibuprofen will eliminate pain.. it will simply make it managable. The rest is mind over matter. Hell some people don't even get anesthetized for the surgery. If you can make it through that with no narcotics, you can make it through anything. Maybe it is your "test" if you will?

I wish you good luck with those teeth.
Pain can make you crazy. Maybe get some ultram or something like that. If you take them as prescribed you won't get a buzz.

It'll only burn you.

Phtree, your body chemical an receptor are still working the "kinks" if you will, from the damage that you have done. You're body may be flushed of opiates but you damaged. Receptors and pretty much replace seretonin with opiates. That's where the 12-18 month recovery comes into play.
I'm batteling my own demons as we speak, but I am done with it. I can live such a better lifre without them and that's my reason . I read that 30 second rule that dude posted and I can already tell you that this method helps TREMENDOUSLY!

Phree, I was supposed to get all of my wisdom teeth out years ago. I put it off and put it off, because I was DEATHLY afraid of the pain. But I put it off so long that 2 of them started badly decaying & I ended up in horrific pain anyway. I don't have dental coverage, so I went to a clinic around here. All they did was novacain me & I swear on my life I barely felt her pulling it out (I only got 1 of the 2 done so far). She was done & I had no idea. Anyway, they won't prescribe pain killers. She gave me strong ibuprofins and that worked fine for me. And I'm the BIGGEST bitch when it comes to pain.

I'm really happy that you (and the others on here) decided to get clean, and are actually trying hard to stick to it. Addiction is no fucking joke. You may always have that urge in the back of your head.. but your life is worth so much more. And think of how much extra money you'll have now, to use on GOOD things.

For me, I got pregnant. I could've kept going like some women do, but I wanted a healthy baby. I wasn't going to chance her being born addicted, or possibly unhealthy or deformed, and have to suffer all her life, because of my selfishness.

Anyway, kudos to all of you. I wish you the best of luck, and strength, to stay on the sober path.

for real??? huh...ive always thought it was some horrible thing to have to go thru lol. i guess ill jus have to get over the fact that they are gunna be shovin a needle in my mouth now :shock: i fuckin HATE needles!!!!

lol got a funny story about the last time i went to the dentist actually. shit it was quite awhile ago but anywho! so i was gettin a new cap put on one of my teeth because the one i had was done every poorly and had a crack in it and the nerve ends in my tooth were exposed. so right from the get go i told dude not to give me novacaine because of my fear of needles, i was high as a kite on oxys anyways but he didnt kno that. so he starts gettin everythin ready and shit and fuckin tries to give me a shot anyways as if i wouldnt notice the giant ass syringe in his hand! so of course i panic and grab his hand and start freaking out at him lol. he starts yelling at me "for your safety and mine let go of my hand i am holding a needle." and said to him "I told you no fucking novacaine asshole!" lol he didnt seem to like that so i let go and he put the needle away but boy did he make sure i felt him workin on my tooth after that lol.
