  Hi DeLawno,
  
  I wish you'd place the name of the Rx that your office gave you for bruising which seemed to have been effective so that others would also be able to avail of... It will help if you can also offer help to those who may want to have their procedure done.

  Great news!
  
  I woke up this morning and didn't even think much about it
  Until I was about to put my contacts in...
  My mini "bump" seem to have subsided!!!
  Whooopiiidoooohhhh!!!
  
  So, ProblemPreblem, you may still heal and feel better
  As the days go by!
  I was super conscious and almost "regretting" my surgery
  But, with this latest development,
  I just need to share how good it feels
  To note that "these things do pass" and
  All will be better...
  
  I am praying that you will not only adapt to your situation
  But truly heal and feel better about your procedure.
  
  This thread had been a very big source of encouragement for me
  Especially Tampa's transparency.
  I am hoping that others will feel the same
  And be as grateful.

  Oh, Tampa, the bump is really tiny, and not so visible... I think I am just too conscious, paranoid that people are "staring" at my procedure! LoL!!! You see, i have gotten so used to my natural face that I have put my make-up away and now, I feel I need to apply some 'base' to even out the red eyelid that seems to linger longer than necessary! LoL! Although, my doctor had explained that this may be some form of cholesterol deposit... We will see how it goes.

  Dear Problems, Problems
  
  Am sorry about what's going on with your post-procedural experiences. You must be so frustrated! I really hope your healing happens sooner! Although, let me assure you that you are not alone in your 'slow' healing process. My friends, 2 of them to be exact, also takes longer than usual in their healing process. So, here's hoping all will be better for you sooner than later.
  
  Tampa,
  I went to see my doctor today again for the "bumps" at the outside tips of my eyes. He injected a little bit of the anti-swelling Rx again. The first ones did the job, but, because he is cautious, he does it little by little as he doesn't want me to have an "indentation" once all the swelling is gone. So, I asked him to inject just a little bit more again as there is still a small lump left. I will let you know after 24 hours the effects of the 'tiny bit' he placed in today.
  
  Thanks for your very helpful updates. I hope my 'bump' goes away.

  Oh Lynn, I also wish I know how to go about this uploading stuff. I would really love to share my before and after pictures to "help ease and comfort" the weary who have had the same procedure we had. Unfortunately, I am not as computer savvy as the some people. I am ever so grateful to Tampa for sharing her experiences and pictures online. She doesn't realize how much help she has been to my recovery. A " Florence Nightingale" in her own right, Tampa is!
