I get to have bone graft surgery!

This really blows! The side of my face looks like I have a baseball in my jaw , and when I woke up a little while ago , my pillow looked like a giant tampon. Oozing blood like crazy.

 
Maybe it was just that amazon lady that visited you? :o Vitamin V gotta love it cause it loves you. Sounds like you got ms or oxy for the pain if you have that much edema.

I had a similar surgery about 12 years ago. My lower jaw was too big, so they cut out a section from each side and slid it back. I know what you mean about the swelling. It is crazy, and takes a while to go down. When the swelling goes down, your sinuses will open up and you will be amazed by the stuff coming out of your nose...
