Ron and I name things, so no surprise that we named a cyst on Ron's jaw back in 2008 (I believe you should look at late July-September for the whole story). The ending? The lump finally broke open and released green pus; after Ron had been poisoned and permanently damaged by an antibiotic interaction. It healed.
Today Ron told me it is back! [scream, head banging into wall] We spent over a thousand dollars on co-pays trying to figure out the stupid thing. So many blood tests.... doctor visits. Waiting around on Metrolift in a crowded waiting room with some guy's horrible wet cough spraying all over me.
[shudder] Other than the family reunion and a trip to Galveston, not a good year! God did spare us from the "wrath" of Hurricane Ike.
[frustrated groan] I know the Devil attacks me, and this is a great way to do it. I can accept "insults" to my own health with some grace, but attacking Ron? Agh.
Later on I plan to examine it. If it's just a pus thing, home remedies. I was actually told by an ENT that my home remedies were the best treatment (heavy emphasis on hot washcloth + face).
It's always SOMETHING.

Pictures, or it didn't happen!
YES WARM COMPRESSES! DO NOT SQUEEZE (when you squeeze the ick goes in as well as comes out) JUST KEEP APPLYING!!! I do remember this whole story it was awful!
I am highly allergic to bactrim can not even touch a pill
I hope lumpy moves on with home care but you know to go have him seen if it gets worse
sorry!
Try some bentonite clay on it!
I will try the clay and try not to squeeze!
Ron hasn't let me look at it yet, he has a very full beard. He needs a trim, when I trim I'll get a look at it. Now that I have a camera phone I can get a photo. The last Lumpy was about the size of a twist-off soda bottle cap.
