Sinus surgery on Monday

Post by Ranger Ron »

I will be off the board for a couple of days beginning Monday. I have to report to the surgery center at 07:15 on Monday morning for sinus surgery.

I am hoping that afterwards I will be able to breath and sleep better. Several issues including an abscess that has been there for over a year, deviated septum and a piece of bone that needs to come out.

Mostly I am probably just going to be a great deal better looking....... if you can believe there was any room for improvement! 8)

I'll see if I can get Lois to take a picture of the shiners and I will share them with you all.

Hell, I never thought of that. Sort of like my mower does when the vent to the gas tank is closed, eventually the gas flow stops. Now that really "PISSES" me off!!! :evil: All I would have had to have done the other night was blow my nose! (Guess we can always use a good blow job)


:lol: :lol:

edited to add: Should just have them roto root me from top to bottom!

Everything went fine yesterday. Very little bleeding so did not have to be packed. That was the best news. Oh, the shiners are not even worth mentioning. Hardly see them. Anyway, just real stuffy and didn't sleep very well at all last night. Hopefully will get some sleep today.

Guess I will try to do that now.......later.
