Guest guest Posted April 1, 2004 Report Share Posted April 1, 2004 Well, I told my OS about the whole shaking problem and she checked my blood sugar, which was 98, so that was okay. She checked my blood pressure and pulse and from that she determined that I was dehydrated. The result was a 29? Doesn't mean a whole lot to me, but she says it means I am dehydrated. So, I've got to push the water, Gatorade, Powerade, Pedialite, etc. and go back to check it on Tuesday. She said that if I didn't see a marked improvement by then, that she wanted me to make an appt with my general practitioner. She said that it could be any host of things and most likely not related to surgery (if it wasn't the dehydration thing). I was told that I had to wear this splint for two more weeks and then I would be okay to have my Ortho take off the surgical hooks and finishing moving my teeth. It will be a LONG two weeks!! I had soooo hoped to chow down on a hamburger this weekend! Oh well, my hips and thighs don't need it anyways. Hope everyone is doing well, Cyndi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
