One of the challenges when recovering from a major procedure is that you tend not to notice the day to day improvement. Looking at things week to week or month to month, the changes are more dramatic. So when I try to evaluate how I felt today over yesterday, there's not much difference. In reading this blog, however, it appears that I've come a long way.
By the end of the work day, I'm pretty cooked and the chin pain is worse. Contrast that to the mornings, I'm not as tired and the chin tends not to bother me as much.
The biggest improvement I've noticed over the past few days is that my upper teeth don't have the "braces tightened" feeling. Occasionally, a few of the teeth feel like they are being squeezed.
On to the important update - the bike. I was able to sneak in one quick ride this week. If all goes well, I'll get back on the bike both Saturday and Sunday. I'm convinced that cycling will speed the recovery.
