I just got back from the operating room (had surgery)

And I kinda wish I was dead right now...


I had 3 proceedures done to my nose, they drilled out my sinus tissue due to really bad swelling that I get regularly, fixed my incredibly deviated septum (two broken noses), and had a skin graft done (inside)... They didn't really give me anything for pain (well they did, but it wore off). Man, the pressure in my sinus cavity feels like its going to explode at any second, massive amounts of blood, and the pain feels like I snorted bleach for about 45 mins straight.


"Me"

yep, had surgery for a deviated septum last year.

This is going to go down in history as one of the worst weeks of your life, trust me.

as an adult surgury i have to agree.. I had mine at 20 and it was the worst.. the surgery lasted over 4 hours and when i woke up they said sorry we couldnt get it all so they will probably grow back. and yes one side did grow back argg!!
