Mary, you did it! Congratulations! I do hope the soreness is short lived and you can put the whole experience behind you quickly.

Hello again,
I have ringing in my ear alot worse, the hearing might be alittle less than what it was
but I dont notice much difference well it is only 3 days after the fact. They did have my head numbed up and after word I asked for pain meds so they gave it to me and an ice pack. I had been getting pain in the back of my neck and I am wondering if after they took the screws out
if it had something to do with the nerves back there and that is why it hurt so bad I guess i'll never know . But I did it and now I hope and pray it shrinks and leaves me alone :)
