I don't know if you would call this a horror story or not...I thought it was hilarious at the time. Now, looking back on it, I would never set foot in that pharmacy again because I looked like a complete idiot.

I got my wisdom teeth pulled about 2 or 3 years ago, and my boyfriend drove me to the oral surgeon to have the procedure done. I was given liquid valium, demerol, and nitrous oxide, so I was a little out of it when I was released. My face was swollen to the size of a balloon and my entire mouth was stuffed w/ cotten gauze, blood was dripping out of both sides of my mouth, but I didn't feel a thing b/c of all the meds I was given. I looked like the losing oppenent of a boxing match or something. Anyway, the Dr. gave me prescription for Percocet, and we left straight from Dr's office to pharmacy. While I was waiting to get my meds, I couldn't figure out why everyone was staring at me. Finally, they called my name, and the pharmacy tech. pulled me aside and whispered, "Did he do this to you? Because if he did, we can get you some help, you don't have to leave with him." Looking back on it, I can kind of see why the girl may have thought that because he's a pretty big guy and has a couple of tatoos and I did look like I got beat up. However, at the time, apparently the nitrous hadn't completely worn off yet because I thought that was the funniest thing I ever heard. I thought she was asking if he performed the surgery on me. I bursted out laughing and spit bloody cotton all over the pharmacy tech and told her that he wasn't my doctor. I didn't even realize that I was bleeding until I spit blood all over the poor girl. She said, "Your doctor did this to you?" I said, "Yeah, I wouldn't let my boyfriend pull my wisdom teeth out!" Then, it occurred to me that she thought I had been beaten up, which I thought was even more hilarious, which caused me to laugh and spit more blood and cotton. The pharmacy tech turned bright red and apoligized to me, like ten times. Needless to say, my boyfriend was totally embarrassed and I must have look like a complete idiot! I haven't been back to that pharmacy since.
