I need feedback

Alright.... I have been stalking people for the past few months and have done all my research before deciding to go through with rhinoplasty. I decided to create a review so other people would find it helpful. I had two previous consultations before choosing my doctor on my third consult. I'm still deciding on if I want to post pictures but have time to think about it. I found my doctor to be very nice and down to earth. He does many rhinoplasties,I have seen pictures of his work and he strictly focuses on facial plastic surgery. I feel very confident with my surgeon but know there is the small chance of something going wrong, especially after they read you all that information on the paper you are asked to sign. My surgeon will do an open rhinoplasty on me to shave down my bump, make it a little straighter looking, and lift it up a little since it droops. I am getting a little nervous but I am also excited for June 11th- the day my cast will come off to see my much cuter nose.

I am two full days post-op going on into my third day and am feeling good. I still have some drainage but it is clear. I also bruised around my eyes- it looks like I lost a fight. The day I came home wasn't too bad: I didn't have any nausea, wasn't in any pain, and was able to sleep through most of the night with a few wake ups of changing the gauze under my nose and getting drinks of water to hydrate my throat. Throughout the recovery time, I choose not to take my pain killers and just went with Tylenol. It worked well most of the time expect for yesterday, when I wished I had the prescription pain killers. It is much better today and I will feel it out but have a feeling I will continue to stick with Tylenol. I am also taking Arnica which my surgeon gave to me and will begin taking Bromelain tomorrow, my third full day after surgery. Overall I am taking it easy at home waiting for Monday to arrive so I could have the cast taken off.

Tomorrow will be the big, also swollen, reveal! I'm excited to see the new shape of the nose but also nervous to see how swollen it is. I'm still bruised (yellow and a little green) under my eyes and partly along my jaw line where I swelled up. I'm still swollen in my cheek and jaw line area and am hoping it goes away soon. I look like I'm storing nuts in my cheeks like a little chipmunk. My husband and I have had some laughs (tight lip smiles) about my swollen looks which makes me feel more relaxed about this whole situation. After all, laughter is the best medicine.
