Default Get it done! My nose is feeling WAY better already.

My throat is the thing that's really bugging me now. Deviated septum is no biggy. I'm thinking I should be starting to feel better within the next day or so.

Oh Josh.... YGM again!

Default I had a septoplasty once...I didn't think it was bad. However, I didn't have my tonsils out at the

same time.

I smashed up my nose again though, and I'm pretty sure I need to get it operated on again...

Default You should. I was *so* much better after my septoplasty. Since jacking up my nose again, though...

I think I'm worse now than I ever was...

Elbows to the face FTW!

Default He's absolutely right. I had mine out at 21 years old

When I left the hospital I was saying "This doesn't really hurt as bad as everyone said it would." Two days later, I wanted someone to kill me. I couldn't swallow my own saliva without terrible pain - forget about eating. Not to scare you or anything!

Default

I had the same surgery done a year ago because of sleep apnea. It is worth the miserable recovery.
