Its been a full year since my surgery and my nose is not exactly what we had pictured the tip is bigger on the bottom left and there is a bump on the right side. In two days i am having my surgeon fix it, he said this time should be a lot easier. Hopefully he doesn't have to re-break it but he might have to.
For whatever reason, i am more nervous this time than i was last time.

Thank you!!! I had my surgery done yesterday afternoon. This time around it is way easier, he didn't end up having to break my nose again which is why i think it is less painful! Woke up a bunch during the night because i needed water or if my stomach hurt and i had to spit up bloody stuff, but that was it really! My mom slept down stairs with me the whole night!

I just wanted to add a little note here that although going through such traumatic surgery is extremely hard and difficult on your entire body-- i am very glad i did it and even though it has only been a little over a month for me it feels like so long ago when i had the woes of post surgery extreme pain and whatnot. I am really happy i went through it and even though before and during it feel like healing will take forever it really goes by fast! XO

Thank you ank87 for answering to all my questions. Do you have a picture of you with the tape on so I can figure out how you do that? My surgeon didn't talk to me about it at all and I think that it would help me taping at night. If you can send me a picture I'll appreciate. TY!

Its been a full month!! I can't believe it actually feels like it has been longer than a month since i had surgery! The nose is coming along great-- every week i can see it refining more and more. I am still swollen on the bridge of my nose- it looks like there is still a bump there but it is really just swollen so it should go down and be smoothed out eventually. My tip is also still swollen. the left side of it is so numb i can't even feel col/hot sensation on that half of it. But i think it will just keep looking better and im really happy about that!! :)
