Here I am at day 2 - Day 1 was a breeze - but today is a different story! YEEEOOOUUCCHH! I've got the wax on - it helps for sure. And I was smart enough to save some Vicodin in the medicine cabinet from an injury last month - BOY, DID THAT COME IN HANDY!!
Just wanted to say Hello! I'm officially a Tin Grin! And proud of it!!
It's getting better everyday - on day 4 now. Not quite ready for major chewing yet - but maybe will try hotdogs for dinner tonight. I tried chewing just a little last night ... still pretty sensitive.
Really lucky in that I've only had one sore spot so far and wax really has helped that.
Over all I am still very glad I've made this decision.
