Guest guest Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 i feel like i could start work on monday, which will be 3 weeks post-op. every surgery is different though! i had upper and lower and genio, but recovered faster than normal i think. i have lots of energy and feel like i could resume my life. i am also 21 so my age is a factor, as well as my positive attitude. in the lead up to it, take a multi-vitamin plus iron, vitamin C, and calcium in large quantities. you need to prep your body with the vitamins and minerals you'll need desperatley to re-build after surgery. i think doing this helped me alot too! gina > Hi eveyone - I'm scheduled for surgery March 23rd (lower jaw moved back to > correct underbite) and just wanted to know if anyone had any tips on things > I can do in the lead up to it that will make my recovery time shorter?
