Take care of yourself after the surgery, Miss Maggie.

@nataliegraham9552 2 года назад

It's always a good thing to be on the recovery side of a procedure. So glad everything went well and I'm excited to see how you're feeling in a few weeks. Zak always makes me smile. 😊 I hope you get some good recovery rest snuggling with your pack. Take care!

@carolynprice4199 2 года назад

Maggie, you are the bravest patient I’ve ever seen! My prayers continue to come your way.

@pjk1714 2 года назад

So glad you were in such great hands. Rest up and hopefully by day 3 you will be nearly back to yourself and the healing can begin. You know the drill. Take care and don't over do it.

Always love to see a video from you, Zak and the doggies, it makes my day, hope you are doing well

@ginybrown8738 2 года назад

Hope your recovery is quick and no pain! Always good info on your conditions, you are awesome! Zak you are an awesome hubby, you are always taking great care of your Maggie. I just had my right knee replaced and my hubby is also a wonderful nurse. As far as nurses, I had awesome nurses every time I have been in hospital. They seem to be a different breed of people, just like you. Please take care of yourself, take it easy, that’s an order!

I had sinus surgery/septoplasty/turbinate removal in February due to chronic sinus pain/pressure and sinus infections. Fast forward to 9 months later. I am still on twice daily nasal rinses with budesonide added in. Otherwise I will get sinus infections again. I bought a wedge pillow to help with the sinus headaches I was having as they came back 2 months post op. I am also on a nightly 25mg of amitriptyline to “dull” the nerves in my head. If you are waking up with sinus headaches, either buy a wedge pillow or sleep in a recliner. Surgery was worth it as I can smell again and breath again. Just don’t expect your sinus problems to just disappear. The worst part of the surgery (post surgery) was that I had two open Half inch incision sites on the bridge of my nose where they went in to fix my septum. Those bled very badly and there were no stitches put on them to allow them to drain and not swell. They were open for about a month post surgery.

Glad you feel okay and the surgery was successful!! Rest up with the puppies!!💕😺😺😺

@marikotrue3488 2 года назад

Glad you included the ride home with this video. Always eases concern! I had to go into surgery (before COVID happened), but on surgery day I was recovering (phlegmy throat, stuffed nose, both nostrils) from the flu. I did not want to cancel, so surgery proceeded. The surgery was successful. However when I awoke I felt great, oddly better than before the surgery. I never thanked the doctor, but obviously they must have suctioned out my nose and throat. So I got a 2 for 1 procedure!

@nomfundocandym7637 2 года назад

I’m so happy for you. Hopefully the headaches will stop now. Atleast one of us got their surgery. I was scheduled for a Abdominoperinal resection (Barbie Butt surgery) the same day you had yours but they canceled mine. Can’t stop crying about it, I’m in so much pain , nothing helps 🥺💔

@kristys7172 2 года назад

I'm 8 weeks post surgery, I hope you are doing well. The only thing I didn't do pre surgery was shower/wash my hair 3 times in the 24 hours before surgery. I shower daily and wash my hair weekly, so I just made sure hair wash day was the day before my surgery. Everything went fine. Heal well.

@mariebarnes416 2 года назад

@richardwright9292 2 года назад

Hope you feel better soon! My sister had this surgery and I am sure your hospitals are more modern/advanced but she had a huge bleed 3 days after when she bent down to pick up her daughter. Please be careful if you do a lot of bending! Other than that, she loved her surgery and not had any problems since then.

I have to say you are so pretty without makeup (and if course with)! You have such nice skin. I had a septorhinoplasty some years ago. Partly to fix deviated septum and cosmetic. I feel for you with the sinus infections, it's awful. Hope you are feeling much better after the healing. Love from Adelaide, Australia.

@mikeizzano172 2 года назад

Good luck , we will think of you !Zacks got this rest and heal up ! I’ve had that problem you feel better after a couple days . I had The Whole septum deal , it does improve your sinus !

@ChaiLatte13 2 года назад

It's kind of wild that I've been watching you for a while and my dad just had an urostomy done for bladder cancer. This wasn't on our radar at all. My parents had to get new phones because of the 3G shutdown too. Glad that everything went well with the surgery. I'm too scared to get sinus surgery! I've been suffering for decades. ugh!

@Zinnias2go 2 года назад

I need one of those apparatuses when my nose is drippy 🤣 You are like me I have been known to wake up during my scopes and can recall what they were doing. They are like you remember that?!?! Lol I tell my gastro doc every time make sure you give me enough happy juice, she always says, ok but we want you to keep breathing 😆 I have had 12 colonoscopies because of my IBD 😜 with my doctor I have had since 2014, she is amazing. But I had one I kicked to the curb, she never gave me enough drugs during even when I would mention to the anesthesiologist before hand & he relayed the message to her! She would say the same CC’s worth 😠 I would wake up in pain! Now with my new doctor I wake up briefly with no pain, fall right back out. 👍 This turned into a page 📄😜 anyway I am glad it went well & wish you a great recovery 🥰❤️

@LetsTalkIBD 2 года назад

I kept warning them I woke up and it stopped happening, so I felt a little crazy! The scope was the first time I didn't mention it, and of course I woke up! I wonder if all the other doctors upped the juice on me when I mentioned it? I'm glad you're at a doctor now who listens and gives you what you need! I woke up at the end of my resection (breathing tube in and I think I was being stitched up). I still remember the look on the doctors face when he made eye contact with me!

@Zinnias2go 2 года назад

@rcelestefelix9299 2 года назад

Glad procedure turned out well, and hope you recover quickly. But I don't understand why they left foam inside you. Isn't that supposed to be removed? I had my nose impacted with gauze for three days because some blood vessel in my nose wouldn't' stop bleeding, and when they removed it, there was greenish pus on the gauze. Doctor said I would have gotten infection if they had not removed it that day. Does that foam in your nose dissolve or will they remove it?

@dcantwell119 2 года назад

Hi Maggie, I know you are on biologics and battling sinus infections. Has your doctor that manages the biologic medication ever checked your immunoglobulin G subclasses for any deficiencies? An overall low IgG level or deficient IgG subclasses like subclass 2 can result in the inability to fight off encapsulated bacterias such as the kind that hang out in the sinuses despite taking different antibiotics. Did your ENT get a culture during the surgery?

@elainehardy3502 2 года назад

Hi Maggie

@mombythec 2 года назад

Hoping for a smooth recovery for you Maggie! I don't like nose things either I don't think lol! I'm curious how you'd compare that surgery to some of the others you've had for GI. In my experience, certain surgeons and their teams are so much more empathetic than others and seem to understand the pain potential/levels whereas others with much higher pain inducing procedures act like it's nothing. Am I making any sense?
