Very true. I wish it was as easy as a manicure!

Congrats. At least that is one thing that you don't have to worry

about.

Itching can be a good thing. It is usually a sign of healing,

annoying as it is.

I'm still waiting to see the results of that one. I am now 3 1/2

weeks out from surgery #4 so I still have chipmunk cheeks. I haven't

seen my cheekbones in a long time. I have to wait a while before I

see them again. In a few weeks, I'll get all this hardware out and

new bone plates put in. I can't wait to see what my new face will

look like. Before this last surgery, my cheekbones weren't as

prominent as they were before I had any surgery at all but that may

have been because there was swelling around the TMJ joints from all

the inflammation.
