My wife had all 4 wisdom teeth removed not too long ago, all 4 were severely impacted so I know what a bitch that is. Mine are straight forward extractions though, first one I had done was no sweat. Just wish they did them all at once though. For some reason they thought these last two didn't need to come out, then 2 years later now they want them out.
I'd be hittin the hard stuff if I were you, get some of that scotch up in you.
