1st June: Off to the hospital once again

My teeth are lined up and ready for a new surgery – a maxillary advancement in a Le Fort I line. In other words, they cut my upper jaw off in the same place they did before, but this time they move it forwards and give me an actual bite. I mean hey, I have never had a bite that really touches, it will be a completely new thing for me. Also I am hoping that it will stop all the annoying headaches and migraines I have been having all day the few last months. If things go well, no more dizziness, no moer headaches, no more extremely sore jaws. It will feel like heaven

Alive, working, writing

It seems that I am really neglecting this blog, but the truth is that I do not have much to write about. I am very busy at the moment with my dayjob as a legal secretary and trying to finish my book and screenplay in the spare time. Seriously, sometimes I feel like I needed [...]

Coping with stuff

Life is going decently, that is why I havent been posting here for a while. The job showed to be really nice and I must say I love it. I was also able to finish one of the difficult scenes in my screenplay and am almost done with the story (only about 145 pages of [...]

Short hair and shattered dreams

Ok, I got my hair chopped short yesterday. And with short, I mean VERY short. I did not have such short hair for at least 10 years, probably even more.

But the biggest improvement is… I CAN BREATHE [...]

To turn or not to turn? That is the question…

Ok, I am being really nervous here. The missbehaving band is still on, which is good, but my Hyrax is troubling me. I should have 7mm screw in it, that turns 0,2 mm every turn. Ooook… now, I turned it 37 times. Yes, that means 7,4 mm in total. I am really worried about this [...]

Getting better

Ok, yesterday was a real nightmare that lasted till today’s morning. When my bf came home from work, I was sitting there and shaking, having some sort of shock from another microfracture of the palate. I do not know if I was more scared or in pain or just feeling like the most unlucky being [...]

Bone fracture – in pain, scared and worried

Ok, today did not go well. Not at all.
I woke up at 9am to brush my teeth and turn the screw. I wanted to go to sleep a little more after, but things went terribly wrong.
As I was brushing my teeth, I felt sharp pain that came with something breaking inside of my mouth with [...]

Turning the screw

Sorry for the delay, I was not feeling well. Delayed post surgery shock creeped on me and I also happened to have stomach problems and headache, so I spent most of my time in bed. I just would like to say that this is not a common complication and even doctors were surprised.
We also started [...]

I was sore, my neck, head and chest hurt, so did my canylla and both hands. I could not breathe well and overally felt like hit by a [...]
