deviated septum
« on: July 19, 2013, 06:40:23 pm »
So I had surgery today for a deviated septum. Why post about it here?  Because it is direct result of the synkenesis. The spasms in the upper left quadrant of my face had pulled my nose to the left,  collapsing the nostril.  I waited about two years to resort to this after trying a variety of pharmaceutical  approaches and then just time. Nothing worked so it was surgery. 

Hopefully I will soon be able to breathe well enough again to engage in more high-energy pursuits. Lack of air flow and a persistent cough can slow a guy down. Reducing things to just a cough will help.
