miserable... hope for a better tomorrow
Mar 02, 2010
So I had nsr surgery last Thursday, Feb. 25Th, 2010 and I have been fairly miserable since. I must say that my open DS and the panniculectomy/hernia repair bothered me less. The other two surgeries were far more painful but the pain was a managed pain. My nasal cavities feel like they have permanent brain freeze. Sort of like you are outside in very cold weather working and breathing through your nose a lot and it is all chaffed inside and the cold air makes it feel almost like it is burning. Well that is what I have felt like pretty much the entire time since Thursday. Tylenol #3 and NORCO do not seem to help with the pain. In fact, I have pain medication in me right now and it is that cold burning sensation with every single breath.Oh and breathing... blah! I have to breath through my mouth because I have nasal stints (or whatever they are called) and hopefully at my Dr. visit with the ENT tomorrow he removes them. I am not sure how much longer I can take having them in there. I just want to breath out of my nose again. I am not a mouth breather and it has been extremely difficult for me.
They say this surgery changes peoples lives, let's hope so. If it turns out half as well as my DS and panniculectomy did then I will be happy with the results.
