Diane, I once heard of a guy having a facial "circumcision" of sorts after losing an immense amount of weight (hanging skin). The surgeon apparently botched the job because the poor guy couldn't help but spit on a bias ever since.
Yes, no news is good news. I am in the post op period under the local eye surgeon's watch, before transfer back to ophthamologist's general watch. Lots of eye drops per day, but less than at the height of the consternation back in the winter/spring.
