No surgery for me!!

Post by froger25 » Tue May 23, 2006 7:08 am

Went to see the ENT yesterday and he said that he felt I did not need the surgery to clear my throat and nose. He did say however that I had a lot of congestion which I really wasn't aware of. He then proceeded to spray something in my nose and VOILA I could breathe. The air comming in my nose was actually burning because I was so not used to it. Anyway he prescribed me I think it was Flonase. He gave me a free sample of Rhinocort as well to use, he said they were similar products. It is neat because these sprays can actually be used everyday vs products like Afrin that cannot.

Ok so now the plan is to once again try the nasal mask since this stuff seems to clear me up. Hopefully I will have better luck this time.
