Updates!

I hardly ever post here but here's an update for me!
For months I have had congestion, spitting up gross stuff and antibiotics did not clear it out. I saw an ENT Dr. And my septum is all kinds of messed up. Today I had a ct scan to see what is happening inside my sinuses and they found seepage/blockage in my maxillary sinus. Those sinus caves on either side of my nose. The plan of treatment is to go in, widen the openings, widen the set above that, shave the bone at the entry of my nose and correct my septum. They are optimistic that will correct my chronic sinusitis issues. The Dr talking to me is telling me all the low chance risks since they will be up by my brain and eyes. Chance for bleeding and scaring etc. Honestly though just being able to breathe clearly and less or no sinus congestion is really weighing against most of those negatives.
