I'm still having trouble with the eating (mostly with the swallowing) - pretty much a liquid diet/very soft food right now. And the keeping my chin up is difficult, because they've snugged everything down with steri-strips like mad (stitches underneath). I'm going to work as much as possible to keep it from tightening up after the first few days, because I don't want to pull the scar out into anything wider than necessary.
P.S. If you don't mind... how long & how noticable is your scar? I'm worried, as my cut is about 3 inches long, and who knows how wide until the steristrips fall off & the skin relaxes. You can e-mail me at qafhappy at livejournal dot com, if you want to answer off LJ.
