I just had mine done in September. I was awake for the whole thing! When I went for my consultation I thought they were going to put me to sleep, so imagine my surprise when I got there and they hooked me up to the laughing gas. I was aware of what was going on throughout the entire procedure, and my bottom two were impacted and I could feel him cutting them out! It was the worst thing I've ever experienced in my entire life. I would NOT go through that ever again. I was bruised and swollen for days.
Now, as to what I ate, I didn't. I drank a lot of water and I don't think I ate anything until like two days afterwards. I know, you're supposed to eat food to take the pain medicine with, but I just didn't. When I did start eating I ate chocolate pudding, applesauce and ice cream, and of course lots of brothy soup. The first solid food I moved to was spaghetti, and I cut that up into teeny tiny bites and pretty much just swallowed, not chewed. It took me about 6 weeks before I could open my mouth wide enough to eat a hamburger. I thought my doctor had screwed up somehow! For the first two weeks after the surgery, I couldn't open my mouth wide enough to floss. It sucked!
I feel your pain and hope you have a speedy recovery!
