The black eyes were the worst, however. Raccoon eyes for a week. UGH.

The worst part for me was having to sleep and breathe with my mouth open. Ugh, so uncomfortable!! The pain was pretty bad for first few days. AND I found out that I’m allergic to Percocet. So that was fun. In pain, body covered in hives from the allergic reaction and not able to get a different RX because I had already filled the prescription for the Percocet.
The black eyes were pretty bad. I had mine done on a Thursday and went back to work the following Monday. I had a client show up unexpectedly and I had to explain I didn’t get beat up, it was self inflicted.
