What I can tell you is to try not to worry about whether this one will work or not. Worrying just lets cancer win the battle. I know it's hard, but look for things to keep your mind in a positive place. It may be just as simple as a walk outside on a sunny afternoon.
I know of others on the forum who have had jaw replacement surgery, they will respond to you, likely tonight.
stay strong Steve.
