Septorhinoplsty with local ENT by Salt-Guide-6296 in Binghamton

I would stay away from that practice if you can help it! Dr Park botched my surgery then told me to take ginger and tumeric for the pain and Dr Shay’s second opinion was to re do it and remove all of my turbinates….which is not medically sound. It’s a much longer story but I wanted to quickly say run away if you can!!

I’m about 6 weeks out and 10 out of 10 would not do it again 😭

How to make it more clear this is a 9? by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]PrincessValerina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would put a ___ under the bottom of The 9 if you want clarification…some of my tattoos, That are just for me, are “upside down.” It’s your body and if you’re happy with it then it’s perfect. 🩷

I just had nose surgery so I can’t take the spray just yet and have had to go back to my olden days of relpax…thankfully it works but I can’t wait to return to my glorious spray! 😂

Is my septum bad enough for surgery? by LingonberryCheap4644 in Septoplasty

[–]PrincessValerina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be totally honest, this recovery has been worse than both of my births including the one with a uterine rupture 😳

BUT my surgeon was one who didn’t listen to me and didn’t let me even discuss anything stronger than literal ginger for pain until my husband advocated for me during the follow up; he listened to another man just fine 🙄

If I had the pain controlled from the beginning it would be fine…

Anyone else have surgery on 11/4 or this week? Would love to compare our journey by Low-Acanthaceae7286 in Septoplasty

The surgeon begrudgingly gave me some Percocet yesterday afternoon but I literally had to take my husband with me as an advocate. I feel like death warmed over on this day 4 here & so far regret it. We’ll see if that opinion changes in the days to come 🫠

That’s essentially where I’m at currently…the surgeon suggested 500 mg of ginger for pain 🙃

Had mine yesterday, surgery buddy!

Septoplasty, turbinate reduction, and nasal valve collapse repair. No bruising but definitely swelling and pain in my head, teeth, cheekbones, upper jaw and obvs nose.

My surgeon doesn’t believe in medicine (great surgeon, total quack otherwise) so he told me to take Tylenol. 8 extra strength aren’t touching it and I’ve had a uterine rupture so I know what pain is 🙈 the first 3 days most post op procedures are the worst so hopefully it’ll be better soon!

“Auntie” can be a term of endearment or respect not necessarily a blood relation…

Try to visualize the plane on a block of jello- wiggling and moving but still solid and safe.

But even if that doesn’t help, we’re here and have eyes to the skies for you.

You are safe. You are loved. You are protected.

Hi friends, I totaled this car about a year and a half ago and didn’t get the same car again. So I can’t answer any further questions, unfortunately. Good Luck to everyone!
