Re: Home recovering from surgery
Hey Keith - I did that once and didn't even have a scratch, so it's no big deal! When I was a kid we used to slap mud on a wound and wrap it with a stinging nettle leaf, we were that tough... Before I forget the originator of this thread - best wishes for a speedy recovery Mark - I go in for similar surgery at the end of this month, will probably not be a pretty sight for weeks!

Doesn't sound like much fun. I'm in a similar position. I had periodontal surgery yesterday. I had two fractured teeth removed, two titanium implants screwed into the jaw, a slice of tissue grafted from the roof of my mouth and I have an enormous amount of stitches in the gum and roof of my mouth. In the scheme of things, it's nothing, but damn it hurts.
