Wisdom teeth reaction?

I'm getting all 4 of my wisdom teeth taken out in July. I've been seeing all these videos of people acting crazy and saying crazy things after the removal. Does that really happen, how was it when you got yours out?

    A little info I think should be considered about this drug Versed ( Midazolam ) that is used for Sedation for many medical procedures..Sedation and General Anesthesia are not the same and quite a few people being given Sedation

    think they are being given General Anesthesia!

    There is simply no good or valid reason to ever purposely induce amnesia during a medical procedure. It is only a recent development in medical thinking that amnesia is somehow a "benefit" to the patient. On occasion some

    some patients will remember a bad experience. Forgetting does not mean it did not happen!!

    I feel that if people were aware of the effects of this drug they would Opt For Another Drug!

    Erasing someones memory of what was done to them is wrong!!

    In fact, many people who use Versed for " IV Sedation,Conscious Sedation" Twilight Sedation, during a procedure are Awake For The Entire Procedure but remember nothing, often Believing They Were "Out" the whole time.

    Versed (Midazolam) is an amnestic. It is also commonly used for minor procedures like setting broken bones,colonoscopies,endoscopies, dental procedures like extractions,conscious sedation,twilight sleep, so that patients won't remember pain and discomfort.HOWEVER THAT DOES NOT MEAN THAT THOSE SENSATIONS WILL NOT BE EXPERIENCED!!!!

    Here is a note from a Dentist Who uses Versed

    I've used Versed 1000+ times during oral surgery procedures and I've never had a complaint. It's a miracle drug because it is safe and it causes you to not remember an unpleasant experience. My answer to him is isn't it better to have not experienced the pain than to have forgot it. No wonder you have had no complaints they have no memory of the procedure.....

    I feel that giving a drug for amnesia is cruel I would not want it done to me!

    A strange development in medical thinking that it's okay for a patient to have

    pain as long as they don't remember it and think they slept thru the procedure..

    I wasn't able to talk at all and with the amount of medication I was falling asleep for more than 2 hours when I reached home. Later the pain was coming, but I never did stupid things and I think most of these videos are fake. Those people were happy that they survived and nothing else.

    People only post videos of people doing crazy things. No one wants to watch the hundreds of thousands of videos where the patient doesn't say anything and falls asleep. When I got mine out, and from the hundreds of people I've witnessed get theirs out over the course of 15 years, probably 10 or fewer people acted funny or said funny things. No one acted crazy enough that you'd want to see it on YouTube. Don't worry, you'll have gauze in your mouth, won't really be able to talk, and will be groggy from the medications. You won't spill secrets or embarrass yourself.
