I think we've all had the accidental experience of swallowing an "ice chip" at a restaurant or a melted ice cube shaped like a lozenge with our drinks at home; but the object here is to <I>intentionally</I> recreate those moments. This is how I learned to swallow pills (and overcome my fear of them) in the 8th grade. Which was late enough to be given a lot of grief from my RN mother. ^_^;SuiginChouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00028127203782088732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3382776884137400610.post-57212321692402855442008-03-08T07:50:00.000-05:002008-03-08T07:50:00.000-05:00Jay, just ask them for a painkiller available as a...Jay, just ask them for a painkiller available as a liquid. There's quite a few of them, so no worries. Tell them the same thing for your antibiotic that they'll probably also prescribe.<BR/><BR/>You know, I have a back molar that sits kinda sideways like that.

I went back to work after some of it.<BR/><BR/>In fact, I recall getting all worked up for an ordeal while the doc was getting a tooth "ready", and being informed I was all done and the tooth was out.<BR/><BR/>I find pills much easier to swallow, if you chew up a cookie, then pop the pill in with it, and swallow the lot. I recommend Vicodin if you don't need to drive or work ;-)<BR/><BR/>Don't sweat it, worrying is the hard part.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07462496849879829830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3382776884137400610.post-8606344899522837102008-03-07T22:48:00.000-05:002008-03-07T22:48:00.000-05:00The inability to swallow pills definitely won't he...The inability to swallow pills definitely won't help...but if it's any consolation, my experience with the surgery wasn't bad at all. I was up and going to a concert the next day. My brother was playing Counter Strike as soon as he got home. <BR/><BR/>I'll wish you the best of luck! Hopefully it'll be a breeze for you too!Louhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08052972034684396382noreply@blogger.com
