Guest guest Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 Congratulations on being home ! Sorry to hear your having a rough time of it, I PROMISE, it does get better. As for face pain, etc. I've started up with this pressure/pain right at the peak of my left cheek bone, it radiates to my left ear and it feels like someone is blowing cold air into my left ear canal. Intermittent and annoying. I started sleeping in bed about 10 days after surgery (still with a couple of pillos) and some nights use a heating pad to soothe the feelings just prior to sleep. I also cheated a couple of nights and took a muscle relaxant at bed time...knocks me out and I can totally relax.....it ensures I get PLENTY of sleep. I am an over-achiever and have high standards for myself, so I've been overdoing it almost every day once my dr. cleared me to drive (one week post-op) Unfortunately, here in Austin Texas it is already at the 100 degree mark and the HEAT is just really hard to deal with. I'm exhausted after being out, running around for 3-4 hours. Today is a day INSIDE. Slept in until 10 30 a.m. my daughter just came over (22 and prego with my first g'child) and we might go to the pool here soon. Other than that it is INSIDE and movies!
