Update : Sat 25th June 2005 on my revision surgery 7th July 05

Hello everyone

I've decided to start a new blog on my revision eyelid surgery. I have been posting at the eye forum at http://www.makemeheal.com/forum/viewForum.jsp?forum=2 where I've made many wonderful friends and found lots of support and I will continue to post there and here. The journey here is so that it'll be easier for those in the future to follow who have upper and lower bleph and also ptosis repair.

I will add photos in due course.

Upper/Lower bleph & ptosis repair : 12th Dec 04

A short summary for those of you new - I had my original upper/lower bleph and ptosis repair on the 12th December 2004 in London. I will copy and share my posts here in due course; though this Blog is now started so that I can share my revision surgery on my left eye, 7 months post op, on the 7th July 2005.

My left lower eyelid is pulling down showing the schelera and I need a canthoplasty. A blood clot looking scar on my lower left eyelid also needs removing and my upper eyelid crease only goes half way across my upper eyelid which also will be fixed so that the crease goes all the way towards the inner left eyelid.

Revision surgery: 7th July 2005

I go for my pre admission checks next Weds 29th June 2005. I am hoping that all goes ok as since my break up I've lost 8 pounds and am now like 7 stones 10 pounds for a 5 foot 5 and a half woman; which is like 108 pounds I think. I also have low blood pressure and this was a problem before. I am slow to heal and I bleed lots during surgery. I am eating as much as I can right now just so they won't say next week that I'm too underweight for my revision surgery the week after.
