Guest guest Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 Hi: I had someone come into my office today who just had upper and lower jaw surgery. I asked her just about everything I could think of. I was relieved to see that she was doing well 2 months post op. Her face was still a little puffy, but other than that she really looked great. The main questions I asked her were how she felt coming out of surgery, how much time she took off of work and was it enough time, and how does she feel now. She did tell me that after surgery she threw up blood which the hospital told her was normal. She informed me that the first 2 weeks were the worse and steadily got better each day after that. Her main problem was headaches and congestion at night. The said she still has a bit of numbness still which is getting better. She said as far as pain went she had very little. So I would ask as much as you can while you have the chance, but remember that her surgery may not be the same as yours and we all recover at our own pace. Good Luck, > > I am going to meet with my oral sureons patient who just had > surgery > with him 3 weeks ago. Did any of you do this?
