Going under the knife

Fordman4ever · 06-27-2013, 10:27 PM

On July 10th I'll be getting an Air Force issued nose job.

I have to have surgery on my sinus cavity and have my septum straightened. Pretty routine procedure for the ENT doc that's doing it, but its still a little nerve racking. Plus, I wont be able to smoke cigars for a while, which always sucks.

no smoking?? yeah that does blow! wish you a speed recovery bro so you can get back to smoking some great ones

BHalbrooks · 06-27-2013, 11:12 PM

Good luck Earl. I'm sure you'll come out fine

CigarNut · 06-27-2013, 11:37 PM

Good luck! Thoughts and prayers are with you.

Good luck, been there twice when it was a more involved procedure than today.
Residual bruising is much less nowadays but you will have a couple of shiners and look tough.

I was smoking a week later due to plugs in nose. Not sure how long they keep them in now.

Good luck Earl, just make sure you have some air freshener handy for those moments when improved smell is not desired

cjhalbrooks · 06-28-2013, 07:07 AM

Thanks everyone. I'm going to enjoy this upcoming week and weekend as much as I possibly can and smoke as many cigars as I possibly can.
