The nerve freezing procedure wasn't too bad. The actual freezing was only 30 seconds but there was a lot of prep time to pinpoint the nerve.

Initially after the procedure things were ok...then the pain began. They told us that there can be some increased pain after the procedure but after calling the oncall they said the pain can escalate to the worst it's ever been. That would have been great info BEFORE so we could plan accordingly...especially because I have to go to the ER at it's worst. Luckily I've controlled the pain real well but I know have a nasty right eye shiner . It was completely closed this morning and after icing it all day is looking and feeling much better. Supposedly this can be a 6 week "process" until this takes full effect...we'll just take 1 day at a atime. The other wonderful news is that Jen caught a bug from somewhere and she's in bed with a fever. The hits keep coming..we'll make it work. More to come...
