Hey Seadog!
Hummmmmmmmmmmmm? Wondering about those side effects?
I have since found out the mad face I mentioned should go away as soon as my face stretches out a bit. I was advanced 17mm or about 3/4 inch, so I sort of got a face lift. It made my lips tight against my teeth. It's no big deal and if all else fails I can always have a few injections to fill in my lips.
My teeth are a bit off but after a trip to the Ortho. He said there is some movement up to a year after surgery. And I have noticed some improvement, so I will wait a bit more before jumping into braces.
The numbness is starting to go away and was told about another 2 to 6 months. About the only thing it bothers, is my speach with the letter S. but other wise not bad.
Now there is one very bad side effect that has happened to me. I hope you don't have this problem.........
Now that I'm awake more I have noticed my husband is more of a jerk then I had thought before.(I was asleep so much before I didn't have time to notice) I'm going to have to do something about that!
And once you are normal, you can't use the "I'm tired excuse" anymore.(darn it!)

So best of luck to you!
