Its been a while since I've updated you all! Miss me? Of course you did. :) Anyway, I suppose the reason for not updating everyday is I had my rhinoplasty on this feb 27 (I've narrated my whole rhinoplasty journey on "The Nose Job" tag)So, I don't see my
orthodontist for last two months and I'm hoping that he’ll grant two more
months rest as I’m too tired to get into the elastics world again (I stopped using that since rhinoplasty). I remember
his words if I use these elastics regularly I could take this braces off within
one month or two. I told my mom just the other day that it’s going to be pretty
sad when this is all over with. I really like my surgeons, my ortho, and all their
office staff. Gosh, I've been seeing them for over three year now pretty
frequently. I sure will miss getting to chat with all of them.
I’ve got a call from my friend, Keerti (Another patient of
my doctors) today. She was all talking about my our surgery experience and
about her approaching secondary surgery at Ernakulum Specialist hospital (where
I did rhinoplasty). She also told me that I could keep eating more and more solid
food. I figure out that it won’t work just because still I can’t chew, it hurts.
It sure will help with people asking me "so when do you get to take off
all those braces?" with their scrunched face look. This is probably another
reason why I'm not a huge fan of eating in public. I tend to have bits of
random food fly out of my mouth because of the elastics too. Let me tell you, it’s
pretty hot.
I went to see Dr. Rodney (my ortho) again today. Everything is looking
great. He told me that now I should start putting my elastics' on both sides for 24
hours that means I should put them full time. I figure if it hurts, then I just
spit it out because obviously I'm not ready. He also told me that I could take
this braces off within two months if I wear elastics regularly. But I don’t think
I could do that. Hmmmm lets see! Finally my teeth had two lovely cream colored elastics hooked on it. I asked for my old
green code one thinking this might be harder but my orthodontist told me that
this has the same effect of green and its good if we wants hide it from getting
noticed(last time also he mentioned about this cream one which has the same
effect of green). But I don’t wanna hide it. I don’t mind my elastics getting
noticed by others. I only mind the pain which this elastics offers hehe!!! It
started hurting slowly and getting deeper and stronger. i was struggling hard to control my pain till
I reach home then had one pain killer, ketorol DT nooooo effect, this I pulled
out one by one just dumped that on my garbage bin. Relaxed on my revolving chair watching one
movie on my laps… Now I’ve taken a strong decision, I want to quit… I want to
end up all these toxic things… I’m sure I can’t bear this elastics’ pain. My ortho
said all other treatments are been over apart from these elastics work and I don’t
bother those tiny gaps which these elastics meant to correct. So I think it would be
better if I calling this off here. Mmmm I should discuss this with him when I see
him next time.
