Yeah, I'm very pleased. I had to take a really hard mid-term the day after my adjustment, which was hard, but I'm so happy to watch the changes. It's starting to look like a nice, healthy arch!!
My bottoms are still very messed up, however. I have to get another lower extraction tomorrow morning, so I'm enjoying solid food today while I still can! It's nice to have the tops making such good progress, though, since those are the ones people notice the most.
That is frickin' amazing progress! Congratulations! Especially after only 2 months1 I really haven't had that great progress after 22 months!
Good luck with your extraction tommorrow! Keep us posted!
