Lindsay Lohan Gets Her Wisdom Teeth Extracted
Is legally allowed to take pain medication

Geeze, some people will do anything to get access to pain medication when they are legally restricted from taking any sort of prescription medication due to a court-ordered probation order that requires random drug testing. Lindsay Lohan, who last week was legally barred from ingesting any alcohol or medication until her next court hearing in July, underwent dental surgery here in SoCal yesterday to have her wisdom teeth extracted. According to TMZ, she has been given the OK to take pain medication as a result of her dental surgery … which strikes me as a pretty ingeniously suspicious way to get access to meds when one is not really allowed to:

It might seem like bad timing — that Lindsay Lohan was ordered last week to submit to random drug testing, just days before she had her wisdom teeth pulled … but we’ve learned Lindsay got a pass from probation. Lindsay’s lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley, tells TMZ, “We advised the Probation Department of the dental appointment, which was made well in advance of last week’s court hearing.” Chapman says she assured the probation officer she would provide “documentation about any medications that Lindsay would be taking, which would be administered or prescribed as part of the procedure.” So whatever sedative Lindsay got in the oral surgeon’s office, and whatever she’s taking for the pain … won’t count on the drug test.

I mean … maybe I’m just being overly suspicious but … this just sounds way too convenient. I’m not saying that Lindsay Lohan would actually decide to get her wisdom teeth pulled just to get her hands on pain meds but … the timing … the timing seems really suspicious. In any event, Lindsay Lohan is now wisdom toothless and free to get hopped up on pain meds … it sounds like a win/win for her, yes?

    Ok, I get that people feel pain differently, but does she really need that whole head bandage? When I’ve got my wisdom teeth out (3 separate times) I took the day off work, mostly because I couldn’t speak with the gauze in my mouth. But I took regular Motrin pills for the day I got them pulled and was fine the next.
