Surgery- No golf for 2 weeks!

[ScienceBoy]

Well it is almost here, off for some surgery on Wednesday, on here for a few more days then a week off work to recover. No golf for 2 weeks from today :*( BOO HOO

Having my nose reshaped, my sinuses cleared out and some tissue removed to widen the passage for air in my nose.

All with the aim of making it easier for me to breath through my nose and fix all the other problems nasal polyps and sinus problems have caused me for the past 2 years.

If I am not back on the forum by Sunday then it didn't go as well as I planned.

All the best mate,hope it all goes well for you,keep your chin up,ooops its your nose isnt it!!!!

I had my nose sorted a few years back, removal of adanoids, polyps shrunk etc was sore for about 3 weeks, then was great for a year or 2 but feel like it needs redone.
good luck fella

Best of luck my friend, sinus problems are a pain.

I've had sinus problems for years - it's the wife, she never stops "sinus a cheque for this, sinus a cheque for that" sorry! the old ones are not necessarily the best!

Yup, I had my first one in Nov 2009, lasted until Aug 1010 before the problems started again. First time around it was just polyps, this time I am having the works done!

 

[viscount17]

had mine done years ago, SMR, SMD and BINA. It isn't bad, though taking out the cocaine nose plugs afterward was a bitch - imagine pulling out your toenails from the inside. a week you'll be fine.

a secondary effect of this is that once healed you won't snore - well not for a year or two anyway

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Good luck with that - doesn't sound much fun. Hope it works out and you don't have to go through it again. At least it is the start of the year and most courses aren't in great nick so you're not missing much

 

[JT77]

A friend of mine had it done also, but went to a doc in the south and there is a laser technique out that he reccomended to him, he has had it done, I think i may look at it this year if it is an option.

 

[sawtooth]

Yep me too been there done that, good luck and hope it nips the problem in the bud.

We'll get out for that game at South Winchester when you're back fighting fit.

I hope I never recover

Kidding, sounds like a good idea, not had a game with a forumer before. I see you are pretty local!

 

[sawtooth]

I played South Winchester last year, nice track but we didnt have the best round due to a bit of a log jam on the first few holes. I think it was you who said that you were a member there. Not that local, I live in Sandhurst about 45 mins.

 

[ScienceBoy]

There is always a log jam, short par 4 followed by par 3.. You get used to it after a while, accept it and enjoy the round (as long as the golf is good)

 

[Gillespie16]

Good Luck with that ScienceBoy, Hope you have a quick and good recovery.

had a similar op 2 yrs ago, took some bone, cartelege and other bits out. The worst bit was the removal of those plugs. I thought they were pulling my eyeballs down my nostrils
