Okay, so the two holes above my eyebrows (apparently some big nerve centers) are fine now, but the one on the right side of my face still hurts when I yawn or chew or otherwise engage the muscle in any activity. I know that my muscles rarely engage in activity, but then again, we are talking about eating here. Which, despite my witch doctor taking me off of practically all food, I do quite frequently. I'm wondering if it's worth puncture pain, increased headache pain after, and a few days of face muscle pain, to get four hours of moderate relief.
And, have I mentioned I itch? No idea why, but scratching just turns into nasty welts all over, which is unattractive and unprecedented. I've learned that oatmeal baths are messy and ineffective.
The pain doctor was excited I'll be back at work next week (this week I've been on vacation), because I have fewer headaches when I'm less stressed, and he likes it when they're more frequent. I'm guessing that's a scientific observation type thing as opposed to him just liking to see me in pain, but who knows?
