Guest guest Posted September 1, 2005 Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 hi, Im Amy - been on here a few times before my surgery and have now finally had it! I had my lower jaw moved forward 9mm on friday afternoon. just wondering if anyone else finds the bands a complete nightmare - not being able to open ur mouth and the pressure of your teeth together actually causing discomfort and pain?? and dont you just all crave things like pizza, crisps, chips, meat, potatoes,chewing gum and anything else thats not liquid! ahhh driving me crazy and its only been one week!! havent been out the house yet (apart from leaving hospital and going in the garden) as im still really quite swollen. i look like a hamster and my entire chin and neck is yellow. its really weird though because only half my lower face is numb!! anyway was just wondering if anyone wanted a chat or whatever! if you havent had ur surgery yet I would be very happy to fill you in. ask anything!!
