Thanks. I'm thinking they'll just clean it out and pack it with gauze, and I hope to gods they numb me up first, judging by how much it hurt to try to clean it myself.

I talked to my mom, she feels dumb for not telling me what the syringe is for. And now I feel guilty for her feeling guilty!

I'm all thtupid on Vicodin again, but I did get my laundry started. *lol*

Interestingly (and thankfully) enough, my top two extractions haven't given me any problems at all! So there's something to be happy about. That, and my supervisor's really nice about people taking time off from work, especially since she had dry socket herself after her wisdom teeth came out.
