Guest guest Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 Hi everyone, I haven't posted in awhile, but I have finally gotten everything scheduled. I have to go to the orthodontist on May 12 for surgical records and then to Mayo for the surgeon to do his surgical records on May 14...then the surgery will be May 26. I am having a Lefort I. I sent the prepayment for the records and surgery off earlier this week so I guess I am commited now. They are concerned about my TMJ problems and hope that fixing my bite will help. This will be my 4th jaw surgery but first one inside my mouth so I am a bit worried about it. The surgery assistant told me that I would not be wired because of the TMJ problems but have 2 rubber bands. I won't be able to chew for 6 weeks...but all of my other surgeries it was 3 months so that is not so bad. It seems to be happening so quickly. No one has said but I am so hopeful that this will be the last surgery:) Thanks for listening, Greda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
