Guest guest Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 Sara, As always you come up with the great ideas! I do have some Eucerin at home and never thought about using that. I did use the wax last night which helped, but when I woke up this morning and looked in the mirror it looked like my face was swollen from the wad of wax. I was like no way can I go to work with my face looking like I have just came out of a boxing match. I also had some wax on the front lower hooks also. I know everyone says who cares, but I do when I am at work here facing the public. Anyway, I will surely give it a try and let you know how it works. Maybe my OS today will have some ideas also since it was his idea to have these things on for 6 weeks before surgery...(haha) Have a Great Day & let me know how your appt. goes! > > > > > > > Hi everyone, > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I think I'm getting paranoid, but I just have a general > > > > question > > > > > > about > > > > > > > swelling and numbness.
