Today has been dreadful. Ive been taking my pills, my face is soo swollen, there is some very light bleeding.
The only thing I've eaten is half a wendys frosty. I have been using two ice packs for each side. I sleep sitting up.
Even with the pain pills my pain level is usually between a 6-7.5. My brother got his out without any pain or issues, as did my parents. I guess I'm just lucky. I haven't been able to brush my teeth, nor can I open my mouth. The picture shows how far I can open my mouth, which is just slightly.
I've actually lost two pounds in a day but my face looks like I've gained 30 pounds. The freezing went away at around 2am last night, yay no nerve damage! Make sure you have a very committed care giver to help you out in case you swell up like I did. I've been knitting alot though.
