Been a month since my operation and a bit of a milestone really. It's hard to explain how I feel about the op and more importantly the results. On one hand I am fed right up of not knowing what the final results will look like (impatient I know!) and not being able to eat properly. On the other hand I'm glad that the worst is over with and that in theory it is improvement all the way from here.
Cheeks are slightly (and I mean slightly) less swollen now although I am still finding that I morph into the churchill dog whenever I spend too long in front of the mirror. "Ohhhh yes yes yes". The numbness is still there too, can't feel anything in my bottom lip or chin. Still banded up as well, so talking and eating are still, well, an experience. (For some reason, it seems lately that everybody is so keen to tell me what they've had to eat or what they are planning to eat. Just for the record in case anybody wishes to make gastronomical conversation with me....DON'T!! Unless it involves an offer to take me out for a meal once it has healed fully, then of course feel free).
I do feel a lot better in myself lately. I am trying to get a bit more fresh air and also need to step up at the gym a bit I think. Sorry for such a boring update, things are moving very slowly at the moment so there is not much change to report!
