Sara/Re: Back from surgery

[Guest guest]

Good Morning Sara Girl,

I was so drugged up to even ask any questions after the surgery. My

post op appt. is next Tuesday and I will surely ask all of your

questions then..(haha)

Right now I have massive swelling. My entire nose, cheek area, and

lip is looking like I have been in a boxing match last night. Even

with the Percocet I am still having a bit of pain. I sure am

missing that numbness right about now.

Anyway, I will surely get some answers from my OS and promise to

keep you informed.
