Guest guest Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 Hi everyone! My name is . I am so happy to have found this page. I had both jaws operated on on March 16th. I am pretty much one week after surgery tomorrow. I have been an emotional basket case. With my nose dripping all the time, to constant migraines, dry mouth, stuffed up nose, and an inability to sleep. On top of all that my self-esteem has fallen (and my moods) in the dump. I know this will hopefully all end but I am supposed to go back to work soon and their is no way I am going to subject myself to that in a customer service job,it would be hell. So I guess I am taking off longer then anticipated. Thank god for disability pay! I was so happy to find this page. I need someone to talk to and see that there are other people having the same problems that I have. Although when I went to the doctor today they said " well you are a bit more swollen then average " ya thanks doc. I also got hooked up to an IV because of all the issues I Have been having they checked my heart rate and it was up in the 150's. SO EVERYONE MAKE SURE TO DRINK YOUR LIQUIDS ALL THE TIME. I Thought I was drinking plenty but I Guess not. . i kept choking on liquids because I am so swollen that it was hard to swollow correctly. I have so many other issues that I Dont want to drone on and on. I am going to read some other posts and maybe see what has helped others. THanks! ps. oops just drooled on the keyboard(maybe I need a splash guard) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
