breathing problems for all

[Guest guest]

Hi, as I read, the most problem that I am hearing is breathing

problems. Well, sounds like a big problem to me. I like to breath

myself. (Ha) What kind of operation are you all having that makes it

hard to breath? My operation is August 9 and I talk with my doctor on

Thursday and I want to address this issue. Can anyone explain? thanks

Tonya,

I had a Leforte 1 Osteotomy (Upper jaw) surgery. Please forgive me if

I'm too graphic...but here goes. They put tubes down your nostrils

once you are out. Usually you have one for Oxygen and one to drain

the blood out of your stomach. With most surgeries they can put the

types down your throat, but since they need to work on your mouth they

can't have the tubes in the way. Hope that helps without grossing you

out too much.
