Silver haz to have surgery :(

I have a lump that my doctors want removing ... I wouldn't mind, since it's been giving ... let's say ... 'bother', but it's on my face. And since it has to be surgically removed, I'm going to have a scar on my face. SILVER IS NOT HAPPEH.

Still ... at least my headaches might stop!

Now, all I need is a cure for asthma ....

It's not meant to be an argument Hun, that's just how you've interpreted it. I was merely being playful, hence the 'haha' at the end XD

[a-silver-story.livejournal.com]

Yeah :(

I just wish I didn't get a scar, though!

*sniff*

I'd rather have my face wot my mammy gived me.

... though more boys in my yard could be fun ...

It'll be right above my right eyebrow, just next to my temple. JOY!

[a-silver-story.livejournal.com]

Hahahaha. Maybe I could do that ...

*sniff* it's hardly fair!

I have an appointment on Wednesday, so shall ask about plastics then. I have actually been considering - should the scar *have* to be visible - asking them to cut into a certain shape.

Maybe a lightning bolt, since it's on my head.

Hopefully that wont' be one step too far ....

[a-silver-story.livejournal.com]

Ooooooooooooo! That sounds promising!

Where did you get it from??

Your icon made me feel tons better!

Depending on where you live...I'd try your local drugstore. Walmart, Shoppers, London Drugs, Rexall...

And I just spotted a bunch of spelling errors in my first comment. Note to self, do not comment while half asleep.

Hee thanks! I shall check my chemist in the morning!

[a-silver-story.livejournal.com]

True - and I think I may have found a cream that will make it nearly unnoticeable! Yay!

[deathbymutation.livejournal.com]

Why does it feel like we're running an illegal drug ring?

[a-silver-story.livejournal.com]

shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh they'll find us!

[deathbymutation.livejournal.com]

whoops...my bad?

[sophyl.livejournal.com]

It's not fair at all *hugs* but at least the nasty old lump will be gone!

I had a lump removed from my hand by a plastic surgeon and the scar is not even visible to anyone except me, and even then I have to look for it.

Although, if I had known about the lightning bolt option...

Do you also have a pet owl and marry Ginny?

*Twit-twoo*

[chryssalys]

Oh, yay, indeed! If not, tea tree oil really helps minimize scarring, you can barely see my lady's surgical scar at all.

Hey hun. If it's any consolation, I had an enormous cyst removed from my right cheek many years ago and I was the same as you. Totally horrified that I'd look like the elephant woman. When I came out of surgery, they told me the scar was going to be a lot bigger than originally anticipated because there were "complications".

Well, honestly, today you can't see it unless I point it out and people get up super close. And surgery techniques are a lot more advanced than they were 15 years ago when mine was done. I can guarantee they'll do everything in their power to make the scar as small as possible.

Don't freak out when you first see it because it will take months for it to heal and the scar to fade. But it WILL fade. I used a bees wax-based gel in mine -ask at your chemist - and I swear it did the trick.

Hugs and best wishes!

Try not to freak out at first. All new scars look so much worse at first. Later it will probably be a thin white line you don't notice unless you look really hard.

I had an enormous cyst just below my eyebrow removed. Now, I can hardly tell it's there. Besides the other advise on creams, etc to minimize scarring, I recommend using a very strong sunscreen for the first year. Scars sunburn easy the first year.

I have a new one on my nose to keep out of the sun this year. Fell flat on my face & broke my nose. I have this big crooked gash there now. I wish I could say this was a medical reason, instead of explaining I was just a complete clutz!

Since I don't have insurance, I never even got it stitched closed. Already not too bad. Ithink I need to come up with a cool cover story, though!

When you were very small, a Dark Wizard broke into your house and killed your parents ....



^^ that is my favourite, and the one I shall be using!! XD

[freekydj.livejournal.com]

OMG, please!!!! I don't think I should encourage anyone to think my family (especially in the parents dept) is any more bizarre than it is already!

My "family history" reads as stranger than most fictions! I suspect my birth parents may have actually been possessed by small dark wizards. It could explain a few things...

I think I should go with me and my cane coming out ahead in a fight, or defending someone! ;)

It would at least be funny, me limping & chasing someone off while waving my cane threateningly...

[a-silver-story.livejournal.com]

hahahaha.

You could tell everyone you faced down the 456.

If they don't get it, tap your nose and go 'Government secrets ;)"

[freekydj.livejournal.com]

Hehehe!

I love that! Sorry...If I tell you, I'd have to kill you. Or maybe just retcon?!
