We got some meds for it and if the swelling is not gone down by half tomorrow we are supposed to go back to the doc. Thanks both of you ladies! Its good to have a few bloggy buddies! I always like advice from an RN too!meeyeeherehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12304683592942412260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-687331512029370336.post-48990438907971992662011-04-21T07:58:15.303-07:002011-04-21T07:58:15.303-07:00Thanks guys!
