The entire left side of my face has felt bruised since my original surgery of 6/2/08. That was before my implant, but it still continues. It is especially noticeable right below my eyebrow above the eye socket, and along my jawbone.

I have all of those symptoms and my surgery was two years ago.  One of my doctors calls it neuropathic pain. Today the areas you described are tender.  When I have a headache, stressed or over tired I'm in big trouble.  I'm on neurontin and it helps, but there are times when nothing helps and I'm on the verge of tears :'(   I've whined about lots on this forum!!

Hi Lisa:  I personally haven't had that happen.   I always contact my opthalmologist when I have questions.
(Sounds like Anne Marie got an answer to her symptoms).

Always good thoughts,  Nancy
