Well I had surgery one for my TMJ yesterday. My face is swollen pretty good. I can't eat anything besides soft foods for now. I hurts to just talk so I keep my mouth closed. I am hoping this helps and doesn't make things worse. The dr said we may have more ahead BUT I don't remember a thing after telling the dr are you sure you are giving me medicine right now. Somehow I ended up home and in my bed several hours later. It is crazy how drugs can do that to you. The funny thing is they told me I still had to pee like normal...every 10 minutes. I wonder how I can be so out of it and still have to do that!!!

Mary,

What kind of surgery did you have? I also have TMJ and am hoping not to have go down the surgery route.

Hope you will recover real soon.

Hang in there. I've never been sorry I had TMJ surgery and I had mine eight years ago.
