I was so freaked out by the way my face looked this morning, I wanted to
have my Doc check it out before the weekend. Looks absolutely awful.
Cold towel compresses do help cool the skin off, thank goodness, it's just
hard to drive anywhere while holding them.
So you're not taking the Lisinopril permanently? I would have a fit, and a good long talk with my doctor if this happened to me. Seems like there should be some other medication that could be used without all these nasty problems.
