I had a surgical procedure called a "gum graft" this morning.
They cut a strip from the roof of my mouth about a half inch long, then stitched it to the gums in front of
my lower incisors to replace some severely receded gum tissue there.

I feel like someone hit me in the jaw with a baseball bat.

Still very tender tonight.  I'm about to take some Tramadol and go to bed.

Yikes, like Bob said that hurts just reading about it.  You have my sympathies Indy 

Oh and lay off the Jalapenos for a while.

AAAHHHH...don't tell this stuff. It makes me cringe. And that ain't easy for a fat guy.

Feeling better today - just had my first actual food (a bowl of clam chowder for breakfast, LOL!) and now it's starting to throb a bit.

You really know how to put a sore mouth into perspective there, Ronnie!

That's the thing about life, though - none of us get out of it alive!
