Lymetoo,
You are one of many people here who have been so helpful and kind to me (and others) that it seems only right (and good karma) that all goes perfectly for you!!
I will say a prayer for you and your medical team.

Hey Tutu, You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Check in with us as soon as you can to let us know how it went.

Oh, Tutu. I forgot about you were having the sinus surgery today. I was having my own little procedure today.
Prayers and warm wishes coming to you in Branson. I hope they are doing the right things for you.

Tutu, just saw this. Hope it went well. Try to relax and not mess with any packing. And DETOX, throw in some good bug killers and lemon in water, just in case. lmt

Wonder how it went for tutu???
-------------------- Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Remember Iam not a Doctor Just someone struggling like you with Tick Borne Diseases.
Have some bronchial wheezing and/or congestion and a swollen eye which is better today. I've coughed so hard, my back and stomach are killing me.
Sinus pain??? Not even CLOSE to the pain I've had over the past 6 months in those sinuses!
I took one pain pill last night and none yet today.
NO packing!!!
Thanks for praying for me and the sugical staff and for all the well wishes!
I was my dr's last surgery for the day. I think my surgery began a little before 4 pm. It was a LOOONG day without food and water!!!
Oh....the anesthesiologist quizzed me about my "borreliosis" since I asked them not to give me steroids.
He asked what steroids would do to me and I told him. He asked if I was under the care of an infectious disease doctor and I said no, I was under the care of a doctor here.
He asked his name, and I told him. I figured he already knew. He made no comment but I could tell he wanted to.
He asked "So how long have you been off treatment?" ( in response to something I had written down previously ) I said 3 years.
Jerks. I hope that made an impact of some sort for him.
The hospital he works for is the one who has brought charges against my doctor. ( they were dropped )
I told my husband that I thought the anesthesiologist wanted to "go there" but wisely chose not to! Not good to get the patient all riled up before surgery!!

I'm glad he didn't go there. I would hate to read a AOL alert story about some wild woman having sinus surgery in Missouri and she was locked up for kicking some duck tail. lol
