I saw my Dr. today for my weekly appointment. It has actually been 1.5 weeks since my last visit because my Dr. was in a remote town in Mexico last week. Turns out he and his team spend a week in Mexico once a year providing cleft-lip and palate surgery for children. I really picked a great Dr.!
The appointment went great and I am cleared to go back to my normal routines as I see fit. I have been bouncing around from day to day - feeling great for a few hours to being pasted to the couch a few more. Last night I woke up about 100 times with my facial muscles fully tense so I didn't get much rest. Dr. sent me home with more muscle relaxers to take at night so hopefully that won't be the case tonight. I also plan to start working from the office for at least half-days to see how that goes.
Going through my pictures, the most profound difference is in my profile shot. Aside from the ravages of the meds on my complexion, you can really see the effect of repositioning of my teeth, jaw and chin. I was still pretty swollen but you can see the differences pretty clearly.
Someone asked that I put the x-rays back up because they couldn't figure out what day to select to find them so here they are..... :)
