Still very swollen but no longer look like an Avatar, I was worried I would be looking like sci-FY creature for weeks but thankfully not.

Day of cast removal
Beckiw1987April 22, 2014
I was most nervous about this part I thought the stitches were going to hurt and my nose would be wonky.
Having the cast off was by far the most painful thing I have experienced during this whole process. I have very dry skin and the cast was well and truly stuck on there, even the nurse commented that this was one of the worst she has had to remove and some lucky people have their cast fall off! Stitches didn't hurt at all and they were out without me even knowing.
I look like an Avatar and I went to a children's birthday party the same night, luckily none of the children ran away screaming so think it was OK.
Other than the massive amounts of Avatar swelling the nose shape looks ok to me and I'm not worried about the final result

Day 4

I was really swollen to the point of hardly being able to see through my eyes I really think the arnica gel helped with the bruising though. I didn't find sleeping upright too uncomfortable and so far have only gone through 4 films on netflix. I have still been starving, I've read so many reviews where people have lost weight and I think I might have gained it.
