This is the first time I have ever experienced anxiety like this. Everything is tipping me over the edge, and my emotions are running high. I think the fear of recovery is the worst-- or the fear of something tragically going wrong.
Having my jaw wired shut for 6 weeks sounds miserable, but the pain, the swelling, the hunger, and the overall boredom is causing much fear and anxiety. The surgery is in a week, and it is all I can think about. It keeps my up at night, and everything I think about revolves around this surgery. Today, I am headed to Denver for my pre-op appointment, so it is becoming more and more real. I cannot believe in one week, I will have a titanium jaw!
