Guest guest Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Hi everyone. The first week was a piece of cake. Not so with this week! I wetnt fot my first follow up yesterday and had a complete melt down. First they lost me in the system so after asking 4 times if had forgotten me they found me appt 12:00 arrived 11:30, saw DR 2:15. On top of this I had an hour drive to get there. MELT DOWN My teeth had move our of the splint so I had somewhat of an open cross bite going on.My ears have been the only thing that have hurt. They tried to open me up and found that I have fluid in the jaw joint. So for this week on rubber bands just more Ibuprofen, T3 and now muscle relaxers. If I wasn;t drqlinf before I am now. I have been a sleep since 5:00pm yesterday. It's time to take all the meds again, so I better in get bed so I don't fall down. OH, forgot my question for the group. Does anyone have a numb tong! Mine is numb but I think in my IT FEELS like it is huge!!!!!! Thanks Michele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Michele My tongue was not numb from the very beginning. However, my chin and lower lip are, and they do feel HUGE. I don't look all that swollen, but boy do I feel like it. The bottom half of my head just feels ginormous! I also had a lot of pain in my ears. That is starting to subside 6 days post op. Keep up the healing. Hope you feel better soon. > Hi everyone. The first week was a piece of cake. Not so with this > week! I wetnt fot my first follow up yesterday and had a complete melt > down.
