Hey all-
I've been recovering for about a month now. I'm feeling pretty good; I almost look sober when I walk! My smile is still shaped like a triangle, and the surgery side of my face still feels "dead".
I'll get to the point: the eye on my surgery side still dries out a lot. Norma thought it best to continue using the Refresh brand drops they gave us st St. Vincents, but I don't want to pay $15 a box, only to run out in two or three days. (I suspect when you buy the single doses you're paying for the plastic thingies, not the drops.)
I bought a bottle of the Refresh tears and gel stuff last night, but they seem to work less effectively. I put them in, and I'm fine for about an hour, but I feel like I have to apply them much more frequently.
P.S.: How long until I can sleep on my surgery side? I don't sleep on my back, and my other side is getting sore.
P.P.S.: How the heck do you change the photo on your postings?
Health and happiness to all!
Dale
