Third Adjustment

I just returned from a weekend in LA -- a little relaxation with my sister and some friends. This morning, I had my third adjustment. We've moved on to the "heavy" wires. It was definitely different putting them in -- a lot more effort and this time the Dr. did it instead of his assistants. He said it'll hurt a little more this time, so we'll see. I actually don't mind the tightening -- the more it hurts, the more I'm hoping it's working faster!:)

At my next appointment, he's going to do new molds so he can see where I'm at and do so "fine tuning." I like the sound of those words, even if I don't actually know if they're good or bad. He said it looks like I'm on track for my surgery date, which made me VERY excited. I know things can change. But, for now, I'm choosing to stay positive and hope that adds some energy to getting these things into the right place so I can move onto the next part of this process. The only difficult part was choosing my next appointment. My ortho will be out of the office for 2 weeks -- 4 and 5 weeks from now. I normally go in every 4 weeks. He said I could come in early (at 3 weeks), which I liked better than waiting until week 6. Here's to hoping that's enough time!

Anyhow, I hope everyone is doing well with their adjustments or surgery recovery or whatever stage you're in. I'll follow up again soon!
