39 Yr Old Getting Complex Sinus Surgery /rhinoplasty / septoplasty / turbinectomy /etc - Houston, TX

So let me just start by saying - Im a pretty private person also due to many insecurities . However I feel I need to contribute to this site because all the beautiful people on here ( inside and out) have helped me and made me feel confident about my surgery coming up......So thank you ! you have saved many tears and bottles of wine !lol...... I will say I work in healthcare and hate needles , blood, etc so I am fearing this so badly - I have had severe allergies, exposure to dangerous mold, and chronic sinus issues from when I was little and here I am almost 40 still suffering and its affected my lifestyle ( cant breath, workout , smell, taste, headaches, tinnitus, etc etc.... So finally I decided lets do this - I have the best ENT/allergist - Dr Randall Brauchle , pulmonologist - Dr minh Tran, and Dr Funk ENT /Facial Plastic Surgeon . Let me save you the years and ll the time I spent looking for the best - I highly recommend them ! And yes I have other specialists too if needed rec just PM me ....
So lets get the cosmetic part - I am doing the rhinoplasty only due to all the other fixs I need . I figure if they are going to open that all up might as well! Same healing time! Yes I have been teased sooooo badly in Elementary through highschool - man kids can be soooo cruel! Not only did they tease me about my nose , it was also my race. These things /insults really never die ! I already had a tough upbringing then I had to deal with that . As I got older yes I had plenty of rude people comment out about my nose ! I get it - its big ! I didnt choose it ! Ive lived in every part of the US and let me tell you there are rude people as well as good people everywhere. I still work with patients from 4 yrs old to 102 yrs old and it amazes how bold people can be with nose comments. The funny thing is , as my name shows I am a world traveler - so passionate about other countries and cultures, I have not had comments about my nose outside the states.....Beauty is so different culture to culture. Regardless, the mean comments have won and I am doing the rhinoplasty as well.....
Yes I rambled on there - but Ive read about how others have gone through teasing as well, maybe it will help someone?
So I started " nose shopping " a year ago - I went to see 3 plastic surgeon / double board ENT surgeons, by far I loved how caring Dr Etai Funk is . He could have easily done the surgery last year - however he referred me to ENT specialist for the sinus part , since Its complex......He really cares ! hes honest and hes also adorable (just saying ) . I have surgery in a few days and I am freaaaaaaking out ! so any words of encouragement I will take.

Well I am finally feeling somewhat okay 5 days post op. I am going to be completely honest about what happened with me, hopefully it doesnt scare you guys but this is just MY experience. I feel this has nothing to do with the Drs, etc just my healing /health issues are complex and this has been ALOT worse than expected.
So I dont remember coming home from my sinus surgery ( 4-5 procedures plus rhino/septoplasty) it was around 5 hrs long and my sister had flown in beforehand to help me thank gawd! At some point after being home a few hours I projectile vomited blood- dark blood tinted watery stuff at least 5-6 times. It was alot ! I didnt even know I had that much in me since the "no eating /drinking guidelines" before surgery . I was in an insane amount of pain because I could not keep any pain pills, antibiotics, or fluids down. My face and head were killing me to the point I was balling and I was almost passing out several times. My chest and back felt like someone threw me up in the air, dropped me, and then ran me over with a truck! My sister was right by me 24/7 the first few days helping me through the torture and on phone with the drs trying to figure out what to do. My meds were changed up and by day 3 I was no longer vomiting or in severe pain. I feel like day 1 and day 2 were major set backs being so ill and thought I would end up in ER...but I wanted to stay home and avoid being put on IVs and such. Days 3, 4 , and today are better however my BP keeps dropping and I have been really dizzy. As far as the pain - yes its there but not severe. I am just doing the extra strength tylenol. My nose is sore and numb at the tip, my sis has been helping me do the cleanings :) Well lets hope tomorrow is good

So a week after I went to see Dr Funk , still feeling pretty dizzy , light headed , low blood pressure , however not much pain. I had stopped the tyl w codeine probably day 5. He took off the cast , which that part did not hurt . Then came the stitches , he was gentle however it still stung a bit in certain areas(inside the nostrils and outside) . Then came the suctioning , it was definitely uncomfortable. I was able to see my nose , but I kind of freaked out a bit inside , didn't say much to the dr.... I looked so different so weird. I put the mirror away quickly and let him finish taping my nose.
