Hello everyone.

So I had sinus surgery almost 3 weeks ago and have a few questions
about recovery. I had turbinate reduction and endoscopy something...no
septum stuff...so it seemed pretty basic.
I was completely miserable for about a week and a half...not really in
pain, just felt like the WORST head cold I had ever had. My throat and
ears were pretty sore after all that thick nasty drainage. Then I went
for a follow-up where they basically vaccuumed it all out and took out
the rubber straw thingies (I know, not very technical). After that I
started feeling a ton better and last week, I almost felt completely
back to normal except for a little stuffines.

Then this weekend everything turned for the worse again! For 3 days
now I have felt miserable again with bloody gross thick drainage down
the back of my throat and full ears. I feel like I did the first week
again. What happened? How could I go from feeling great to feeling
this bad so quickly? I have another follow-up appt later this week, so
I'll talk to the dr. but I'm wondering if anyone else had this
experience?

Thanks!
