Stitches for wisdom teeth

Can I rant? Am I allowed to rant something?
I'm incredibly frustrated with my situation.
It feels like fish bones in my mouth sticking out of my gums. I'm really hungry and I just want to eat.
When I do start to eat, I start to feel them and fear stuff being stuck and them it's just annoying, because I'm not eating, not enjoying anything. My stomach growls for food and I can't give it any.
I'm supposed to let the blood clot and not poke at it but I can't help it, sometimes I'll move my jaw like second nature trying to clean it out. I don't want any food to get stuck but it bothers the blood clot.
This is absolutely something I will have to be patient about. It's just so awkward. Literally feel like fish bones in my cheeks and gums.
Guess it could have been worse, I'm not in pain or anything and I wasn't that nervous going in, no foolishness going out. I'm decent, so I just need to now be decent...
Maybe I'll attempt soup. But with what. I have nothing. All I have is hard food. I can't eat anymore oatmeal..... even if it does have raisons.

Gah, I have an appointment to get my wisdom teeth out in a little less than a month. Unfortunately I will not have the luxury of any longer-term anesthetic :-/

Until how long after surgery was there pain, if there was any?

I hate my dentist, he "fixed" my cavity but yet it causes me tremendous pain every now and then, and yet he claims there is nothing there. I think I need a new dentist.

I would def. see a new dentist if your still experiencing pain after a cavity filling...

I had my wisdom teeth removed and couldnt eat solids for almost 3 weeks. I basically lived off milk and icecream. I feel for you

It didn't bother me because I was coming off of the anesthetic. And they give you mild pain killers, to rudimentarily take, the only time I felt slight pain, maybe some throbbing was when I waited a bit after the time mark to take mine.
They say it depends, some people feel a lot of pain, I didn't and don't. So hopefully it's not bad for you either :)
My biggest trouble is what to eat.

I agree with the Lone Gunman! I've only ever had one cavity and it was filled in wrong, they said no worries until it cracked and became infected. I was in the worst pain I have ever felt.
I'd suggest at least checking it out with another Dentist, one that's good because my turned into a Root Canal ::(:
