  1. Best of luck, although something is bothering me. I’m not sure any more my self, I even think it’s a dream now, but have you mentioned that new UMCH version will be out for public this week?

    1. Yes that was the plan. But it probably won’t happen this week, and why I don’t like giving dates. I will not be able to do hardly anything for a few days at the least. Assuming I don’t die in the first place heh. Hopefully this year I can start to work on this full time.

  2. Yeah, it’s a bit of a pain but nothing you can’t handle, I’m sure, and it’s worth it. I relaxed and played games when I had mine done (all 4) and it helped take my mind off things. Some tips that work for some people (which you probably already know): Gargle warm salty water (I did it twice a day, I think). Sleep upright to help reduce swelling. Keep up with the recommended painkillers and anti-inflammatories at the proper doses (I skipped a couple and took a while to get the pain back down, and taking too much can be bad obviously!). Give yourself plenty of recovery time. Some people are much better within a few days but I think the average is a week and some people take 2. So don’t rush back and take it easy! Else it might take a bit longer. (Hope I don’t sound like an expert coz I’m not but that stuff helped me). 🙂

  3. Hope you recover soon! And hope you don’t get the monstrous swelling that I did when I got mine pulled. And that you don’t have nightmares that are difficult to wake from that might come from the pills. And try not to chew your lip too much if you can’t feel anything. Yeah… wisdom teeth suck. Wasn’t lucky enough to inherit my mother’s lack of them. Best of luck to you!

    1. I seem to be ok so far, little to no pain (thoguh I have been preemptively poping them), no swelling, it is obviously not totally healed yet but I am fine otherwise. Just gotta make sure I don’t do anything to fuck up the blood clots. I’ll see how it goes for the rest of the day.

    1. The hardest part for me was not smoking until the holes closed. It was supposed to take a day or so, think I lasted maybe 6hrs.

      1. That’s really bad lol. I don’t smoke but from what was on my little page of stuff not to do, people needed to chill on smoking for like 3-4 days at least.
