I should tell you that walter is wonderful, I am just the person that everytime I have a surgery something goes wrong. I have bad luck!I know what you mean I like things done now and waiting for appointments drives me wilds. I hope that they move a quick when they decide what needs to be done. I am very happy today because I was able to move my appointment to have my braces removed up by one week. I was invited to be aguest speaker at Ft. WA on the 26th and was to have braces off the 25th. I said I needed a few days to adjust to not having braces before I stand up in front of 200 people and speak! My surgery will be Thurs the 4th of Aug. 2 more days and maybe this nightmare will be over for me. I love my teeth and even with all that has gone wrong I would do it again. Best of luck to you.

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 I have my ortho appt on 8/25. My OS is not sure how they are going to want to do the splint/braces combo or how long they will be on pre- op. I guess the ortho will give me that info. My OS says that this is a team approach. I think we need to get the whole team together and give me all the answers at once. I felt like, " why did I have to come back to see him prior to going to ortho, if he was just going to send me there " . Did you feel this way? Good news about your braces! I bet you will feel like a million dollars when you give your speech. What are you speaking about (sorry, I am a nosey woman)? Hope all goes well. > > Sorry it's taken so long to reply.
