3 Months Post Surgery Today

I haven't been feeling so great, but finally got around to taking some pics.
Please note I just finished running around at gymnastics with my daughter and it was a VERY long day. I still have some bruising under my eyes and my skin broke out something awful!

  1. You look great! Your profile has changed dramatically. I can't believe you are still bruised. I can't tell from the pictures.

  5. Hi,I saw your recent post on Archwired.com regarding the burning you are getting in your lips. You are not alone!! I am 10.5 weeks post op (Le Fort and BSSO surgery on 5/20/11) and have the same burning feeling in my lips. It started about 5 weeks ago and has not gotten better. It starts about mid day each day and lasts the whole day. I mentioned this to my surgeon, who referred me to the pain management specialist within their department. I am a little nervous that this is permanent but maybe the good news is at least we have some feeling?!
