Septoplasty/Rhinoplasty:: Thanksgiving Break 2011!!!(-: -

BrazialianGypsy-- look at my dec. 11th update it says most of the things your will need for ur surgery to make it a easier and more comfortable. Best of luck. When is ur surgery?

very well. thanks, I got used to my nose after a couple weeks and was able to sleep on my side and totally forgot I had surgery done. It's been almost two months and the swelling went down alot and the tip of my nose still is a little numb.
I did have packing for 5 days. I think all it is, is gauze...quite a bit of gauze too. Made me feel like I had a bad cold and I could not taste anything i ate and by the third day I wanted to rip it out and the cast off my nose b/c leakage and itching and it being so uncomfortable. No pain really the packing is just super uncomfortable and makes u only able to breathe out of ur mouth and ur mouth gets really dry.
My packing came out the 5th day and when he took it out it felt Very Bizare like he was pulling boogers and brains out of my nose.....but was such a relief to be able to breathe out my nose. But then swelling went up and all the dried blood and gunk is still up ur nose so once again it will be hard to breathe again for a week or two.

good luck on recovery!!everything will get better and better after the next couple of weeks. lucky u dont have packing!

Thanks Luna! ya swelling went way down after the second week. it's crazy how a small change can make a huge difference with features. only annoying thing is the internal/dissolvable stiches/scabs.

ya care credit usually accepts everyone as long as they have a income which they ask for. you just have to make sure u pay at the right time every month or u get interest. you can even get approved before u pick ur surgeon. here is the website if u wanna look. best of luck with everything.
