I did start feeling some major neck pain in my left shoulder and I thought my neck pain was coming back with a vengeance as it started hurting horribly bad last week and was progressively becoming worse. I scheduled an appointment with someone who does deep tissue massage/neck stretching and deals with people with chronic neck pain this past Tuesday and the day of I was still incredibly sore, but now 2 days later NO pain what so ever. I am going back to her in 3 weeks for a follow up to help loosen my muscles even more.
The most exciting thing is I got my top braces off about 3 weeks ago, and this past Monday I got my bottom braces off! It feels amazing to have that part done and over with. I forgot what normal teeth feel like, which is totally amazing, white, and slimy. No more coffee stained braces! Yay.
I do feel like they could have made my chin a little more defined, and I know they brought my bottom jaw as far forward as they could due to my facial structure they couldn't go as far as they would have liked to without doing way more work than I wanted. I didn't want a whole new face, just teeth that touched, and a bite that was functional, which I got! : ) Looking back it was worth it all, and wasn't sooo bad. On the bright side I had a month off of work last summer, and it taught me that I should take more time for myself. I plan to take a few weeks off this summer and enjoy life! I will post some before and after pics soon! Back to work I go! : )
Hope everyone is doing amazing out there! I have been keeping up with your blogs here and there, and you all look amazing!
