Okay, so yesterday (I think it was yesterday) I posted that I was so excited to get my fill today.  Well, the reaction to the steristrips was so severe he said NO, and that I had to wait two weeks after using some steroid ointment...  Boo Hoo!!!  I am so bummed...    I understand it is so he won't cause an infection, but anyway...

Plus, on top of that I gained 4 pounds since last week!  At first I thought it was the fluids they gave me and possibly some swelling... but, it didn't go away.  I am still heavier than I was.    I couldn't even eat that much after surgery!!!  Oh, well...  so, now I have until February 3 to drop those pounds plus some on my own.  The fill will still remain greatly anticipated...

Sorry I don't have better news...  but, the allergic reaction is pretty ugly.  I trust my doc...  Just God PLEASE don't let me gain any more weight!!! 

I am starting a small support group in my general vicinity, which is Naperville, IL.  If anyone is interested, there are already two others that I will be meeting sometime over the weekend (I hope!).  A few more friends would be nice!!!   PM me for details...

Many blessings...  And, I will update soon...

God bless all of our efforts...  Davina

Do not worry...once you get your next fill you will get back on track.
You need to take care of the skin reaction first.

Thanks, Carol...  the more I look at it the more I realize his point.  It is pretty inflamed.  I found out this morning that I am slightly pre-diabetic.  I hope that scares me straight, because I have family history on both sides, multiple times.  I really appreciate your support! 
God bless all of our efforts...  Davina
