Guest guest Posted February 25, 2003 Report Share Posted February 25, 2003 Wait! I had sinus surgery! A few months before my WLS. Turbinoplasty, septoplasty, sinus repair. It wasn't the most fun I've had, but everything worked again! Still working. In fact, 9 yrs Friday. BUT it did change the shape of my nose. THAT was a surprise. The doc did offer to fix it, and I shoudla let him, huh? Thanks, Vitalady, Inc.

I am guilty of that, lol! My pcp says I have an inflammation called fasciitis in the hip/thigh area that can best be treated with a course of anti-inflammatories. He prescribed piroxicam (aka feldin). The headaches are sinus headaches. Not a lot you can do there except the nasal sprays, etc. etc. I will not consider having sinus surgery because I have never heard of anyone that it worked on. > > This falls right in there with my habit of not being able to order clothing that fits. I just bought PJs, and I ordered them in a size Large because that was the largest size they came in. Well guess what -- they are swimming on me. A size Small would have been more appropriate, lol. > > The head journey of WLS is a trip all in itself!! > > Thanks for listening to and entertaining my ramblings... > > (NY) > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2003 Report Share Posted February 26, 2003 My late hubby had sinus surgery after years of disabling headaches. He never had another problem. He said the surgery itself was nowhere near as bad as a sinus headache!
