Oh this nose! It has given me grief my entire life. It's a love/hate relationship. Okay, so more like an annoyed/hate relationship. I have never been able to breathe through my nose.
I was supposed to have surgery last December on my nose, but found out about our miraculous surprise, so that wasn't going to work out so well! This year my deductible bas been met (many times over I might add, Thanks Trever) and so I am headed for surgery next week. Any thoughts or prayers would be awesome. Surgery should be about 12:30pm on December 16th. Hopefully my nerves let me be.
Here are some photos of my septum for your viewing entertainment... LOL
(The Dr said that my septum really couldn't be much worse than it is)
Okay, so this view is my nose at the top. See that area that looks like elongated nostrils or something? Well that is the septum. It is SUPPOSED to be a straight line. My septum? A perfect Picasso!
This photo is straight on. The big dark circles are my eye sockets. Check out that lovely septum again. To the sides you can see my sinus cavities. My sinus cavity on the left side has a bunch of crud in it that hasn't drained, so I get to have that all done while I'm under as well.
I'm going to be sporting some *lovely* black eyes for Christmas. You know you're all jealous!
Ha ha!

Good luck to ya!! And you know I'm totally jealous of the black eyes. ;)
Wow that sounds crazy. I hope you get the relief you are hoping for. Good luck with the surgery. You will be in our thoughts and prayers.
I can't wait for you to be able to breathe out of your nose...although I bet Ben can't wait-do you snore like a bear or what???
Good luck! Dave needs that surgery done!
Glad that the deductible has been met. Makes having the surgery now a little easier I'm sure. Good Luck with the surgery, I'm sure you will be fine.
Oh my heck Jen that is wild! Mine wasn't have that severe and I can't believe what a difference getting it fixed has made. Good luck, I hope everything goes well!!!
