OOOooooooooooo, sorry bro. I hear that isn't pleasant at all. I don't think they numb anything before the procedure.

That's why I don't go to doctors. My tonsils have craters in them and my sinuses have had issues for a couple of years and I probably have a deviated septum as well. I've seen relatives go through all of the stuff and it ain't pretty. Plus, all my mod money goes into cars/beer, not me. Taking the dog to the vet is expensive enough!

we're gonna need pics of the broken nose-piece. If you could get a vid of them breaking your nose, that would be cool too.

seriously though, best of luck to you...and I do want pics!

Damn Eric, that blows.

ENT doc told me two years ago that I should get my tonsils taken out, but I haven't gotten around to it yet. Maybe one of these days....

That's why you don't want to see a doctor! They come up with a ton of problems you might have and send you for tests, x-rays, MRI's and then give you meds you don't need to fix the problems you don't have. They get richer off our medical insurance which keeps getting more and more expensive. Live with the pain and discomfort, or you'll turn into a mussy!

oh, and get out of the AC, that's why you keep getting sick.

Would it knock down any med costs if the breaking was done prior to your arrival at the doctor's???

I dont like doctors, but when theirs some **** that happens you just plain and simple gotta go. money isnt a reason why you should be sick and possibly die.

Good luck man, and like stated above get the second opinion

Eric which ENT do did you see, chance are i might know him...but tonsils take no time at all to heal (never had it done but numerous family members) and my uncle just fixed his deviated septum and he says he breathes 20x better now...but in the end its your call...

ps- the prescriptions they give should ease your pain ALOT!!!
