For three or four days I woke up coughing up blood and having a crusty bloody tongue because it would all creep down my throat while I was sleeping. This happened after every significant oral surgery I had (4 or 5), was pretty annoying.

GTO Pete - why was staying awake so horrible? I did it too, was in and out in 1/2 hour and actually awake and talking (though admittedly slightly dazed) immediately after the procedure.
