Guest guest Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 Hi PJ and everyone, I had my surgery yesterday afternoon, and it lasted for about an hour. I was home in the early evening. I have developed very little pain, bleeding since than. It's kind of unusual. They didn't pack my nose with gauze either like I thought they would. They just sprayed some ointment in my nose. I didn't mind. This morning, I'm feeling better. My symptoms that I have had for a long time appear to be gone. I actually slept last night with no sleeping medication. I feel pretty good considering. Thank you for you warm thoughts. It's much appreciated. , Affirmation Member Having Surgery Today Hello Affirmations Friends, Could I please ask for your prayers to be offered on 's behalf today for his sinus surgery and complete recovery?! has had a really tough time with sinus infections and has been sick for some time now.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 , I know you must feel ten times better than when you went in! My father had the same surgery several years ago and he said it was like night and day and was glad that he had the surgery. Glad to hear that everything went well.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 Hello , I apologize, I'm behind on reading all of the emails, and just read a few here and there, when I'm not feeling too bad. I'm absolutely thrilled to hear that the surgery went so well, and that you are recuperating without any problems. Maybe they don't pack the nose with gauze after surgery anymore, but I hadn't heard of that, but I imagine it feels better without the gauze!! Stay in touch and let us know how the recovery is coming along in another week or two! So glad that the surgery is over, and that you are okay! Take Care of yourself!!

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2004 Report Share Posted March 28, 2004 Hi PJ, Pam and anyone else I missed. Some of my symptoms returned after I wrote to you after the surgery. I went to my Dr Friday afternoon. I thought he cleaned out everything in surgery, but he only did what he could. Friday, he cleaned out a lot more blockage in my sinuses in his office. He stated that there is still quite a bit in there to get out. He's talking at least another visit or two before my sinuses are clear. He stated my frontal sinus cavity is still blocked and thus not getting any air and that's why I'm still feeling crummy.(I am improved, but still miserable). He said it will take a few weeks to get feeling 100%. My next visit to clean more blockage out is April 7th. In the meantime, I'm supposed to use a salt water/baking soda solution in an ear bulb to flush out my sinuses twice a day, along with using the saline solution they gave me in the hospital 4 times a day. This will help loosen everything up. My doctor said the autonomy of my nose is so unusual. I...he...my mother all feel that it is the result of a major bicycle accident I had when I was a child. I believe that is what contributed to this whole thing. My sinus cavity has always been so narrow as a result of the accident, so I've never had the proper drainage. My doctor stated that he will widen it up a lot more after the blockage is cleared up in a few weeks. I'm still on the road to recovery. It's just going to take a little bit longer.. Takes for caring....and have a happy birthday Monday PJ.
