Dr told me that it's less invasive than how I remember my dad's being in 1994......but damn if doesn't seem like the same chit he went through 😐😐

Have they removed the packing yet?

Hope it improves your sniffer Chris.

Was this the balloon thingy? Interested to hear how well it works...

No packing thank the Lord but I still have the plastic stints in and they come out Thursday

Thanks Rick......been dealing with sinus issues for about 20 yrs now and finally had to do something....
Been on 3 different sinus meds for about 2 years straight.

That was the plan but they got an additional problem once they were in ....had an unexpected bone spur that had to be removed. I haven't talked to the surgeon yet but it seems like a balloon/ hybrid solution.

Was the original issue repeated infections, just chronic stuffiness or something else? (if you don't mind sharing).

I feel your pain, Chris...went through similar surgery several years ago, after decades of sinus infections and breathing issues...doctor doing the sinus surgery also found a bone spur that had to be removed as well as a deviated septum....made a big difference, especially to the quality of sleep...

Same as Delta.... Severe sinus infections throughout the year and sinus headaches. The Dr told my wife I was so closed off that the numerous antihistamines weren't even effective any longer.

Now the coke will be better.
Just joking, had same thing, you will feel better.

Hopefully a full and speedy recovery

Ditto on the recovery and hope it fully resolves the issue

Thanks gentlemen....... I truly appreciate the well wishes.... God bless

Went through it back in '83 after I had broken my nose for the third time. Before then I had horrible sinus problems and my ENT doc decided that when he was fixing my smashed to hell nose that they would "clean up" my sinuses by removing a large chunk of them. I still remember when they removed the packing and thinking; "How much is up there?"

I hope you have a fast and complete recovery! 🌫

Argh, bad memories..........fuqed my nose up bad as a kid.......finally had “surgery” in 1970.......when they removed the gauze, which I swear was 3 feet long, felt like they were pulling my brains out through my nose!
Painful...

Did they do anything with your uvula or tonsils too or just your sinuses?

Heal up ya silly bassturd we need a cigar review post surgery.

Dang CSGC.....hope you heal quickly and have no further issues!

I remember when I had upper dental implant surgery, and they had to do a sinus lift and bone graft. That sucked, big time. I've noticed my sense of smell isn't as good as it used to be, and the left nostril clogs up more often now.

Never had it but have heard from several others that it is no walk in the park.

Hope you have a fast recovery.
