Having my dissolvable stitches removed from my upper eyelids yesterday certainly has made a big difference in how I slept last nite as I slept like a baby and when I woke my eyes weren't dry like they have been since my surgery 10 days ago, and it feels like I'm more able to shut them properly, being I have more mobility, even thou the uppers still feel somewhat immobilised and numb (perhaps cos of the brow lift - I'm not sure).
Still feeling nauseaus (ergh), though on waking today I had no pain (yeah!). So I'm healing well (smiles). The only medication I'm taking right now are my 2 different kinds of eye drops (one kind every 2 hours and the other 4 times a day) and one eye lubricant (once a day). My vision is blurry cos of this. Jane advised that she wanted me to keep up with the eye medication until my visit next week. I'm nervous about that as I keep thinking of blood and the staple removal pain.
Went to see my GP today to get a medical cert for another week off work. I still look like I've been beaten up and she was ok with it; so I'm now off work until after Christmas. I just have to figure out what to say when I let the girls in the office know, as they'll have to cover for me, and some of the bankers in my group will feel jealous that I've already had 2 weeks off and then getting another week off.... they do work long hours (bless). They fail to realise I've been working 20 years and some of them are only 23 years old (grins) and only been working 2 years of their life and I've earnt my time off as I've paid my dues in the work force and done the long hours etc ....
No pain in forehead and I'm able to lift my brows (though I'm not sure if the intent is that I still keep them immobilised for a while).
I was thinking last nite or rather seriously contemplating if I'd consider having botox in my forehead if (or rather when) my frown lines return, until such time that I can have my Isolagen cells injected into me. I'll certainly give it some serious thought and research as it would be devasting to see my frown lines return (we'll see how bad it gets).
