Guest guest Posted August 22, 2005 Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 Hey Austria! 7 days post op and doin' okay. Still numb from upper cheeks down, but hangin' in there. I've had a bit of a roller coaster, some days are better than others. I've lost 12 lbs in a week from not eating (I read your later posts - I thought I wasn't eating anything - but you win the prize - ginger ale? My mom would have force feed me- she almost did a couple of days). My swelling is much better, and I have a lovely shade of yellow from my cheeks down my neck from fading bruising. I don't have a splint, and the OS today replaced my elastics to much lighter ones. My OS & OD are THRILLED with the result. My OD's staff were very nice, saying encouraging things when I went into see him today for a quick check and a xray. So good to hear from you, and glad that you are getting stronger!

Let me know how things are going. I hope all went well with you and your surgery! Austria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
