Will I ever stop regretting this??

So it's been a month. I'm still not happy. Breathing is worse than ever before. I'm hoping it's just congestion. Sometimes I have periods where I can breathe with my mouth closed but most of the time not. My right side is the worst, it's stuffy the majority of the time. It's so discouraging.
I'm still so unhappy with how it looks and regret this every day. The congestion leaves me no choice but to be constantly reminded of my nose. And now I'm getting a bump/hump on the bridge of my nose! I never had that before. The pain is gone. Even slight bumps don't bother me anymore. The swelling is still there, so there, even feel it in my cheeks and especially under my eyes. The tip still points to the right. I've just decided I'm stuck with that. There's nothing I can do, all I wanted was a straight nose but I'll never ever go thru this again so it is what it is.
I go back to Dr Zuliani later this month and he said he's going to give me a steroid shot. Hoping that gets rid of the swelling some.
One thing I can say is every time I see him I feel better but the proof is in the mirror. It's what I have to see every day and I can't chalk this up to uneven swelling. I'm still hopeful I will feel different soon. I know it's still very early. But the hump on my bridge, the overwhelming congestion and the plain asymmetry all just add to my regret...

Movement and expressions.

Another thing I forgot to add is that it's weird to always "feel" your nose on your face. I feel like it's going to "break" when I smile too big or talk excitedly, it just doesn't feel like it moves with the rest of my face, my husband says it does so it must just be how it feels but it's weird, anyone else feel that way?

I am in the recovery stage but I can honestly say I am glad I chose Dr. Zuliani. At my consultation appointment I felt so at ease with him. I didn't know the whole language involved with nose jobs but I knew I wanted to breathe better and also have a smaller, straight nose, and not some one else's nose, my nose, one that fit my face and features. He explained everything to me and it made sense. While I don't feel his strong suit is Photoshop, I don't think you want your surgeon's strong suit to be Photoshop. His results speak for themselves. I cannot comment on my end results just yet as I am only 4 or 5 days post op (however you look at it) and right now I still see it's crooked, but the swelling is definitely uneven. But the results I have seen of others speak volumes! Dr. Zuliani is a very sweet, compassionate, and down to earth man. I felt comfortable with him from the moment I spoke with him. I knew he was the right surgeon for me. I was never scared going into it that he wasn't listening to me. He answered every question I had and even encouraged me to come up with more questions. The only negative thing I felt was that he is based out of 3 locations and that was sort of confusing and difficult with appointments and communications. The actual nurses (he has a line you can call and speak with nurses), payment lady and his specific scheduler were all wonderful but the other front desk people didn't seem to share the same compassion and people skills. He is also an ENT and the office has the vibe of being consistent with that, plastic surgery isn't "advertised" around the office, and I feel like maybe they don't care for plastic surgical patients as much...
