This is a case where I decided on two-jaw surgery based on the dentist’s opinion that there was no separate way to fix it with orthodontic treatment alone, and that two-jaw surgery was necessary. As for surgery preparation, honestly... I didn’t do anything separately. So on the day of surgery, I saw the anesthesiologist get angry.. I’m writing this in the hope that none of you have this happen. Exercise is essential! Because my blood pressure was high, the doctor.. scolded me, saying, do you know your blood pressure is this high, are you taking medication, if it’s like this we’ll try anesthesia and if it doesn’t work, we’ll stop the surgery. Fortunately, when I closed my eyes and opened them again, the surgery had finished very well. Right afterward, I really didn’t even feel pain, just kind of groggy? The first day is really.. a battle against sleep. For about 2 hours? Anesthetic gas? They said it had to be cleared out, so they absolutely wouldn’t let me sleep.. At this time, you definitely need a guardian next to you.. From the second day, now.. the pain slowly starts coming up, but honestly, for me, rather than pain, the suffering from not being able to breathe was so much worse.. The thing I struggled with the most throughout that entire week was the suffering of not being able to breathe. The other pain is tolerable. And they say swelling depends on the person, but for me, it was really to the point where I thought, wow, can a person’s face really swell this much? It was so swollen I couldn’t open my eyes, but fortunately from around day 5? the swelling started going down rapidly, and after a week even the doctor was surprised. Everyone, really work hard on walking exercise. I walked more than about 5 km a day. That’s my review
