CCLman, are you taking anything for your allergies ? As for me there was times as a kid where my hands used to swell up double the size. They found I was allergic to dust and dust mites. I don't have a problem with his now, but did have a cold which lasted forever it seemed - on investigation it was...

All are valid worries there, but this may be dispelled if your surgeon has the experience to know in which case to use Intacs and how, quite definitely or to do another treatment which you also would favor.

Hi cclman, What i'm thinking is, once the Epi has healed over, which should have happened by now, there should not be no infection risk (?) they usually give you more drops (and pills for pain) than you need, just to be on the safe side (?) Let us know how things go at your next Dr's visit, or befor...
