So I'm a bit of a freak of nature for two big reasons. The first, it that I never had wisdom teeth. Nope, never. My mouth is just too small. I even had to get 4 molars taken out once just to make some room for all my other teeth.
Unfortunately, this last week, I started having REALLY bad pain in the back left side of my jaw and just a couple of days ago, I noticed what felt strangely like a tooth growing back there.
A wisdom tooth!!! What???
Yeah, I'm pretty much freaking out.
Oh well, it's just one, at least I don't have to have 4 taken out. That would stink.
So what is reason number two?
Lets just say that my favorite question when I go to the doctor is "So, we don't seem to have any record here, but when did you get your tonsils taken out?"
Here's where the plot thickens... I've never had them taken out! Yup, I don't know if they are just too small to see or if I just wasn't born with them, but doctors always think I've had them taken out...
Just thought I'd share these two medical mysteries with you! I'm off to write my paper for South African History...

Haha weird! I had to have my tonsils taken out in fifth grade. The doctors knew me as "The Strep Girl" cause I got strep sooo much. I remember I missed the space center to get my tonsils out. And I got my wisdom teeth out like a week or so before my wedding! I hope your wisdom teeth don't pop in! (Although it really isn't bad to get them out..)
ReplyDeleteI don't think it's that uncommon to not get your tonsils out... No one in my family has had their tonsils out. I always wanted to, though, just so I could have lots of ice cream.
ReplyDeleteAlso, getting my 3 wisdom teeth out was actually awesome. Happy Gas is the best thing since sliced bread.
I just found your blog and I so glad I did!
ReplyDeleteI'm having a fun time reading through.
Have a lovely day!
A big hug,
