Day 7: First Poop/Worried Sick

I guess I jinxed myself when I said I'm able to sleep a good 6-7 hours straight. I woke up several times last night at 2-3 hours interval again. And despite sleeping in an air-conditioned room for the first time after the surgery, I did not sneezed at all yet. Hehehe I'm so happy, this will not happen during pre-op. Sinus, be gone. Hope I don't jinx myself this time. *fingers crossed*

Major numbness on lower jaw today which extends to the neck area. Can wait for all these to be over.

Anyway, I finally pooped after 10 days. Yes, 10 days. 

WORRIED. I noticed 3 things:
1) right nostril bone(?) is way deeper than the left's. I'm don't know how to explain but try putting your finger in, there's this soft bone thing near the side. Hope after the swelling subsides, it will not cause any unevenness in the size of my nose. My nose has already enlarged from this surgery. 😟

2) lower jaw could be pushed in way too back. I don't know if I'm being paranoid or is it because the swelling has not completely subsided but I feel that I may have lose the shape of my jawline. I'll add in a picture I found on google to better illustrate what I'm trying to say. 


The lady above has an under-developed jaw which causes her to "not have" a neck. While mine isn't that exaggerated. Like I said, I could just be too paranoid, since the swelling hasn't gone down yet. 


This is me, now. Too swollen, I can't stand it. I'm a Simpsons now btw. Look at my neck/chest area. 

3) As I feel my right jawline, I realised it's not "smooth" anymore. There are bumps nearer to the back. What is this. Did they not attach/saw my jaw properly. Or what. 

I need answers. I can't wait for Fridays appointments. On the other hand, I don't want to remove the stitches yet.
