I'm so sorry Abbil!
I just remembered how there was a lot of stuff in here that I keep re posting and figured I should let people read. I didn't think. I really hope you aren't too upset.
I did have some problems, I was wired form the get go and more importantly, I was NOT prepared.
I went into surgery know that hey, they were doing something to my face. I hadn't read anything, I had no real clue, so most of the upset came from a place of ignorance and under estimating. I didn't have a clue, the information on this site is so valuable that knowing things in advance would have made a world of difference.
I'm also, unlike a lot of wonderful posters on here, not a very positive person. I've had issues with depression since I was a young child, this really has impacted on how I viewed recovery. I don't cope well with change, have body issues and I've been attempting to find new medication recently which hasn't helped, so the surgery rocked me. This post was written when we were at a low ebb at the end of the first week.
You really will do fine, I'm so sorry to upset you!
