Numb chin syndrome update #8

I thought that by now no sign will have been left of the paresthesia. But there is still a little odd leftover sensation hanging in there, an occasional occurrence. By now when brushing my teeth everything feels completely normal. Instead, whenever I eat or drink something too warm or too cold, the little quarter sized area of the lip in front of my canine (the end bit of the "mental" nerve) reacts to it, and the hot or cold sensation feels stronger, amplified, just in that small area. It is not unpleasant at all. Just odd. And a reminder of what is thankfully now behind me... :)
