To me this was one I wish never happened. Dont forget we are all different. If they mention Rad seed implants, think this one over long and hard. This procedure has caused me more problems than anything else. You will make it thru and be fine I pray. Good Luck As for the change in looks, LOL I'm used to that face I see in the Mirror now. He really isn't Ugly even with the nose keeeping the chin company.
