My oral surgeon wanted to give me Tylenol with Codein, but that’s pretty strong stuff and I decided to just stay with standard Tylenol. I was in a lot of pain for about three days before I started feeling better. Luckily, I didn’t have a ton of swelling even though I had all four out at once. Different people react differently to medication/have different pain thresholds, so your experience is probably pretty unique. My neighbor also had allergic reactions to her antibiotics; she was throwing up and couldn’t even keep down water. It’s best to know and document your allergies so it doesn’t happen again.
I actually freaked out before the procedure because I had never had surgery before and had a lot of anxiety about what would happen. They gave me a relaxation pill 90 minutes before and it was still a struggle to even get me into the chair! I remember scrutinizing every word of the contract I had to sign. There were all these clauses saying that the surgeon was not responsible if anything happened to me during the surgery, and the possible (but not probable) side effects were scary. At the end, it said “as with any surgery, there is a minor risk of death” so jokingly I said to my mom before they put me down, “if anything happens, i love you!” It definitely wasn’t as bad as I made it out to be, and b”h my body responded positively to the surgery without any side effects.
