A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
Imo it's probably one of the best things I've ever done for my body that wasn't diet/exercise related. It was annoying and uncomfortable and being on downers always makes me a wreck, but once that fog cleared and my stents came out, I slept infinitely better, the orbital bones below my eye sockets aren't constantly sore, I don't take a constant stream of OTC allergy/sinus meds, and now, when I do take meds (very seldom - I think there were two days in the last year and a half that my post nasal drip needed help) they actually work.
I also had the procedure where they burn away a bit of the insides of your sinuses if they're too swollen. I don't remember what it's called anymore.
They burn it?? Balloon sinuplasty kinda squishes it back down or something but I haven't heard about the burning procedure, eek
I looked it up. It's called a bilateral turbinate reduction. They don't burn anything, but they cut and scrape and shave down the turbinates in the nasal cavity.
I'm due for the procedure in a few weeks. Glad to hear it's worth it!
Just had it done 3 weeks ago. Very much with it. Still recovering but like 90% healed and it's night and day. The worst part is the stents in your nostrils the first week. After that it just gets better and better.
