Allergic reaction GK
« on: May 17, 2011, 10:40:28 am »
I had GK Thursday.  I have had extreme swelling in my face, especially the eyes.  I called my dr. yesterday and he wanted to see me.  He thinks that I had an allergic reaction to the numbing medicine.  He had never seen anyone react like this.  Lucky me.

Melissa,

sorry to hear you are experiencing this.  Hoping the dr does final recognition of what is going on (ie: is it allergic reaction to something, etc) and gets you well VERY soon! Hang in there!
