ever had surgery's as a kid i did i had lots of surgery's

The only surgery I had as a kid was getting my wisdom teeth taking out at the age of 18.

ok well i had lots of surgerys

What kind of surgeries?

15 eardrum surgerys, adenoids removed twice dentist surgery's and sinus surgery

I had a gum graft when I was 14.

ouch what happened

They did it to strengthen my gum line because my lower front teeth were too exposed. I had to get that done to get braces.

did they use gas or sedation

No, they used local anesthesia. I was really numb most of the time though. I think they must have given me about 10 shots.

how did they keep you still

I grabbed onto my sweater to try to keep myself relaxed. At one point I remember the assistant handed me a pen cap to hold onto, but the sweater seemed to help more. I was afraid of being put under anesthesia because I've never been put under before.

so they did put you too sleep

No, I remember them talking about it, but I wanted to stay awake because I was worried about being put under.

i had my tonsils and i think some adenoids removed about ten years ago, being 8 or 9. i got to eat mountains of shaved ice and ice dream afterwards. simple times.

I never had a surgery till a couple years ago to correct my nose because the inside has been crooked my whole life & was contributing to some sinus problems & minor sleep apnea
