Post-Op Day 4

Day 4

Pain Level  -  8/10

Discomfort Level  -  10/10

we have finally reduced some of the excessive swelling around the upper part of my face and now the bruising is finally coming out which signifies reducing of the swollen glands around the face. Feeling better today can open my jaws with the elastic bands keeping them closed tight. Can eat tiny Ice chips and Popsicle pieces with some help from Courtney Pinder.

I'm feeling energetic enough to walk a few feet up and down the ICU hallways.

swelling is still overinflated in feeling, face is pretty much completely numb to the touch which is a little irritating.

The staff here are absolutely unbelievable! 

don't think i would be able to be in such high spirits without them being here giving me a hand.
