Guest guest Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 Thanks for all the advice from you guys which has come in very handy. Here's my news: Monday: Had lower jaw advancement and genio on Monday with rigid fixation and a splint fitted. Op lasted 2 hours and according to surgeon went well. I woke up feeling groggy and numb but with no pain. Tuesday: woke up with huge swelling around the jaw line but still no pain and only real inconvenience being the splint and my jaw being banded shut. Eating opnly liquids no problem but boring as hell. Wedneday: post-op x-rays show everything where it should be and I'm discharged home a day early. Milk, soup, juice and soluble vitamins have been getting me through the day but the weight is still falling off. Going to see ortho on Friday when hopefully I'll be having my splint removed. Hope everyone's ok. My best wished to everyone. Constantine P.S Anyone think the Friday is too soon to have my splint out? Personally I can't wait but is 5 days too little time?
