I went through that exact same procedure a few years ago. I remember
leaving the clinic thinking "that wasn't so bad". Then 45 mins later
the anaesthesia starts to wear off and I'm racing to the pharmacy to
buy the pain killers I'd been prescribed, which I initially thought I
wouldn't have to buy because, you know, I'm a Man, and I need not of
those wimpy medicines.
It's amazing how painfully irritating 3 stitches inside a lip can be.
It's also amazing how far I overestimated my manliness.
Anyway Mark, glad there were no complications, and I look forward to
catching up tomorrow at the exhibit.
Keep a stiff lower lip!
