Why the hell did I agree to this. I mean I know I needed to have this done but fuck it hurts.  In case you are wondering I had what is called a Rhino septoplasty  just to give you an idea of the swelling here is a picture.

My hubby had that surgery done last year. That and something called turboplasty. I remember one of the doctors instructions was " do not sneeze for 2 weeks". We were like :/.. can't really control sneezing. He got the surgery cause he has uncontrollable sniffles all the time and his nose was always puffy. Unfortunately it didn't help for him but I heard good things from other people

Yeah I also had the turboplasty done. For about 90% of the people that have the surgery done it does help. We will see. I wonder if he may have another more serious sinus problem that he needs to have looked at if that did not help him.

Funny but icky story...
About 2 weeks after the surgery we were getting ready to go out and were in the bathroom washing up and he sneezed. Blood came pouring down his nose like a water fall. I got really nervous and so did he but he said it didn't hurt. I didn't know what to use to stop the blood so we could go to the emergency room so I took 2 tampons and corked up his nose. I couldn't help but laugh at him the whole way to he hospital

At least they were new tampons I hope.
