Guest guest Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 Hi , Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear you're having problems. Here I was hoping we could be braces-off buddies together. I'll keep my fingers crossed that the antibiotics clear everything up and you don't need another surgery. I hope you have a good weekend and feel better by Monday. It's back to the salt mines for me. minirascal- > > Just wanted to quickly update all my buddies that I may be having > another 2nd surgery this upcoming Tuesday to see what is causing this > pain and soreness.

Guest guest Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 - I'm so-o sorry to hear about your possible surgery next Tuesday! Let's just hope the antibiotics do their job this weekend. You will be in my thoughts; in fact, I'm sending you healing thoughts right now. Take care and try to have a nice weekend, okay? ~~~ Diane (Idaho)- -- In orthognathicsurgerysupport , " georgek042003 " <georgek042003@y...> wrote: > > Just wanted to quickly update all my buddies that I may be having > another 2nd surgery this upcoming Tuesday to see what is causing this > pain and soreness.

Guest guest Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 Hi , Geez, I'm off the board for a few days and now I find you might need another surgery!! I sure hope the antibiotics work. I've been fighting a low grade fever and sinus infection but am doing ok (2nd time in a month - guess I should have told the OS about it), but don't think it's related to surgery. You'll be in my prayers to not have to have surgery again. OS still doesn't want me biting down on anything chewy (like pizza) or harder than bread with the front teeth (protect TMJ's). I saw him Wed. Otherwise I'm muddling along. He was concerned about my sleep problems and the fibromyalgia. I told him I'm enrolled to start a new clinical trial with Dr. I. Jon (one of the leading researchers in area of fibromyalgia). Of course I won't know if I'm getting the placebo or the medication as it's a double blind study to see if the meds reduce pain (and hopefully help sleep). Hang in there - sending hugs, warm thoughts and prayers. Shirley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 Thanks Shirley, It is amazing all the twists and turns we go through with this surgery. Last week I thought I was on my final leg of this long journey and now I am heading into possible surgery on Tuesday. I guess I have really earned my caboose title of the June group.. (haha) I sure hope that clinical trial you have enrolled in brings you some answers to your Fibromyalgia and sleep problems. Keep me posted on how it goes because I am interested in the results. Hugs to ya & I will let you all know on Monday if Tuesday is a positive go for surgery. --Caboose > > Hi , Geez, I'm off the board for a few days and now I find you > might need another surgery!! > > I sure hope the antibiotics work.
