AlexM Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Well I had mine removed today (yesterday now), not that bad. Bottom jaw aches a bit, perfectly bearable but the painkillers take the edge off, seem to have stitches inside my cheeks too so I guess that had to cut through. Worst part was being warned of a 1% chance my tongue / bottom lip will go numb permanently, first I'd heard of it! 1% seemed rather high to me but they didn't think so.. thankfully I'm in the 99% who get feeling back. Custard, Ice Cream and Tea have gone down quite well (not at the same time), I tried tinned spaghetti and soggy weetabix but that didn't go so well (hurt rather a lot!) - so hungry though! Looking forward to the day I can eat steak again, sounds like that might be about a week away.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
