Guest guest Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 Hello, I am 15 weeks post op and still having a pretty rough time. I am hoping to return to work on Tuesdaybut so far it's looking doubtfull. I saw my surgeon last week and he says he can't do anything else until iv'e had an MRI scan done, so i'm waiting for that. Earlier tonight I was in the bathroom when I slipped and banged my face on the bath tub. My face swelled up and is very sore I am worried that I have " damaged " something or broken my jaw as my upper jaw got the full blow of the fall. My mum is on the phone to the hospital as we speak. We live three hours away from the hospital where I had the surgery. __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 , I am so sorry. I hope everything turns out to be okay and is just on the outside. I'll be sending well wishes and will be waiting to find out what happens. Connie > > Hello, > > I am 15 weeks post op and still having a pretty rough time.

Guest guest Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 Let us know! I'm thinking you are probably ok, my OS just told me at my last appt that I could do contact sports after 2 months. I asked if I could go 'surfing' in two months (so 3 months after surgery) at a waterpark that my family is going to (it's indoor surfing). I told him that it's indoor surfing and absolutely involves crashing hard and possibly on your face. He said, " Have fun! If you really want to fall on your face... " Hopefullly you just banged yourself good and are fine. Please let us know though! Cori upper/2-piece Lefort 7/20 > > > > Hello, > > > > I am 15 weeks post op and still having a pretty rough time.
