Tomorrow morning I will be going in to have surgery to fix my septum and get rid of a bunch of polyps. While in there they are going to fix some stuff which should hopefully end the series of sinus infections I have been having for the past 20 years. They expect me to be out of work for 2-3 weeks. It is going to be so boring.

I ate something that did not agree with me. Did the technicolor yawn and I feel much better. My mother thinks I need to reschedule. Hell No!

Sure hope it helps you. I just got over my first (and unpleasant) sinus infection. Can't imagine having them for 20 years. Best wishes for the whole thing.

Best Wishes for you tomorrow! The 2-3 weeks will be over before ya know it. In the last 13 months I've had four surgeries. Five if you count the last that was actually two different surgeries the same day. I'm just now starting to get back into the swing of things. I lost most of a year to recovery times and physical therapy but it went by quick.

I know a couple people who have had that surgery, and it helped in both cases- sinus problems are the pits- wishing you all the best, will keep you in thoughts and prayers. Boring in this case will probably be for the best, things could get too exciting! Keep us posted on your progress.

Tell the doctors to put in a good rock finder while they are there, and a flashlight for hunting rocks after dark.
Good luck with the surgery. Hope all goes well.

Not anymore. I feel pretty good really. The only pain I feel is right inside my nose just a little bit like a1/8 to 1/4 inch in. This isn't even where the work was done.

Hope you recover quickly. I have heard the first few days after are the toughest but after that, all is good and you should feel so much better.
Take care!

I am a little stuffy right now. I think I might let the water in the shower run down my face and dissolve the blood boogers at the entrance of my nose.
