Swollen Face

Recommended Posts

Logan's face has started to swell. We added some new things to his

daily supplements. Maybe someone can help me determine which of these

is causing the problem?

Phosphatidyl Choline 170mg

Magnesium 500mg

Reishi liquid herb

Milk Thistle/Dandelion liquid herb

Acetaldehde (for phenol allergies)

I am stopping the last one first to see if I see improvements.

Thanks for any help,

Kaye

My advise would be to stop everything. Drink lots of bottled water and have

him exercise to rid the toxic effects. Then if you feel comfortable, slowly

introduce one item at a time..If you do it by eliminating 1 thing at a time

it might be the 4th thing he is reacting to. You want to watch for

anaphylactic shock which may include difficulty swallowing. With facial

swelling you always want to be careful of possible airway obstruction.

Doctor might give benadryl if this remains swollen, or something

stronger..Joni

Kaye,

I would stop all supplements and call the doctor pronto.

Kaye,

I agree with , but I would first give him Benadryl (there is one without

any dyes). Sounds like a big allergic reaction (this happened to my husband

with shellfish/iodine). Only introduce one thing at a time for at least a week

or two before adding another. Let us know how Logan's doing.

I too had a problem for a couple of days straight with

swollen face/eyelids and TERRIBLE sinus pressure

headache -- made me SICK!!!

I missed a day of work it was so bad! That is major

for me -- but I thought it was a sinus infection . . .

maybe candida related. I really think it was candida

related -- just did lots of salt water in my nose and

later some garlic. Should have done the garlic oil in

my nose and ears sooner! I might have made it back to

work sooner, but I gave into the terrible nausea. I

had it bad.

I see candida like a spiritual attack. When we are

onto something in regard to growing in Christ, Satan

will often times come on STRONG as a last ditch effort

to hang on to you and keep you down. This is when we

have to DIG IN AND STAND ON WHAT WE KNOW to be the

TRUTH, not on what we FEEL!! When that FEELING of

giving into this candida crapola because it is too

tough comes on hard, JUST DIG IN AND GET ANGRY AND

HANG ON TO THE TRUTH THAT YOU KNOW -- this is HARD,

EXPECT IT, but WE WILL WIN!!! NEVER, EVER, EVER give

up! The rewards are WORTH IT!! Keep your eyes on the

MARK!! WELLNESS!!! YEAHHHH -- HERE WE ALL COME --

TOGETHER? Aaaahhh, come on -- come with me!!! :)

my dad always said " listen to your body " growing up i really didn't

understand this but as an adult i am now saying it to my kids because it is so

true if your body wants to sleep especially after surgery then listen

give yourself time to heal and recover just remember to drink lots of

fluids that's important

hi - that sounds awful - there is some swelling post op - but around the implant

site (which happened in my case)........I did have a sore throat - from where

they put a tube in, as for your sleeping - you are still recovering from the

anestatsic, i was sleeping loads for first few wks - due to medications (which

can be a side efect) and also it the anestic trying to wear off - give it

another wk.........it takes time; everyone is different - i could not sleep v

well in hosp (was in for 4 days) cos was v uncomfortable - with banadages and

IV.....you need to rest - some take longer than others. I know one of my firends

who had it done 2nd time - she sailed thru the op - no pain, dizziness, and was

up and about 2 hours post surgery - but it all caught up with her a few wks

later......

Take it easy

my chin, my cheek, and my throat are swollen but not red. the doctor

said if it turns red, its infected...i have antibotics that ive been

taking right on time.

I'm still baffled. I look blown up. How long before I start feeling

more normal? this is day 4.

I'm also sleeping ALOT. TOO MUCH - if u ask me. The painkillers make

me sleepy and I don't like it one bit. I'm trying to find a way to

make myself more comfortable but am not successful.

I'd like to know how many more days on average do I need to suffer

of this?

I had forgotten about the sore throat from the tube and this is indeed true.

Hal mentioned eating popsicles while that healed. I always recommend soft

foods because my soreness was in the jaw area. Alison is also right about

anesthesia as some people take longer to get over the effects of it. I still

think we should just sleep when our systems seem to be asking us to do that,

especially after a surgery.
