Okay. So you're the patient. Now I understand. What sort of problem does your physician feel you have that needs to be addressed by orthognathic surgery? Can you describe what is going on from your perspective? (Include information such as your age, condition of general health or special medical needs, any social issues -- child bearing plans, for example, geographical location -- small town, large city, USA or other country, medical insurance status.) If you can share as much as possible, you will likely get better feedback that is pertinent to your circumstances. Webby
