Post op and struggling hard.

Ty sirwired. I will find out tomorrow one way or the other. Have to leave in 9 to go to the hospital.

Hi everyone, hope everyone is doing ok.
I had my surgery yesterday it went very well. My jaw bone looks very good and healed healthy. All plates have now been removed.

As of the surgery I was very sick again after but did not need to stay the night I just came home and Slept for 14 hours ish.

Feel so much better and happy now and am looking forward to getting my braces removed in about 6 to 8 months I hope.

Fab news. Came on here to check how you were as knew you had op this week. Glad you can almost see the end of your journey.

Wishing you a speedy recovery

Ty Mrs V.

I'm so much happier now. That's the last of the operations.

Am very sore and swollen but know that only be for a few days. All I do is sleep but more due to the general anasetic I have had that makes me that way.

Here to the end.

How's things with you.

Hey scraggy, how are you doing now? Hoping things have healed up for you!

[scraggy]

Things are going ok, my braces come off on the 9th may. Fingers crossed.

Eating is still hard, I have trouble chewing food with my back teeth.

But I'm learning each day how to cope with my new bite.

Hey Scraggy-- I just wanted to check in on you, see if you were able to get your braces successfully removed, and how things are feeling now. Hope you are well!

Hi lissy

I'm doing really well. I had my braces off on the 9 th may. My teeth look really good, I'm so pleased with them.

I don't need anymore surgery thank goodness.
Am having a little trouble with breaking my retainers
I'm on my third set. Lol.

Hope everyone is well.

[lissybear22]

Wow that is great! I'm so glad you are doing well!! Hilarious on the retainers!!!

[scraggy]

The retainers are worse than braces and the surgery put together. Lol

Hey Scraggy, just read your whole thread, you had a hard time but you got through it, you are stronger than you think! You're in the UK right? Where did you have your surgery? Glad all is well now!

Hi, beebop
Thank you very much. I'm from Brighton. I had my surgeries at the Royal Sussex County Hospital.

They were all fantastic.

Where are you from.

No worries scraggy - I'm along the southern coast in sunny Devon, I know Brighton quite well actually, a great place to be. Nearly moved there a few years ago!
