Nose Job
Well I did it and had the surgery yesterday. I arrived at the Inter Community Memorial Hospital in Newfane, NY at 6:30 am and got set up and prepped for surgery. By 8:00am I was being sedated and wheeled into surgery. I don't remember anything else until I woke up in recovery and was transported back to the ambulatory care surgical center. The nursing staff was great, truly wonderful and dedicated women. Dr. Szmula told my family after the surgery that I could have a Yugo drive through my nasal passages now.
I cam home about 1:00pm and took some tylenol with codeine. I have been a little uncomfortable but the discomfort is worth it if I can breath through my nose again. This morning I woke up all stuffy but that is normal. I'll be giving more updates as I recover. No diving or working for a couple of weeks so I will have plenty of time to blog. More soon.
