Has anyone else ever had sinus surgery?

  • #discussion

I have had two seperate surgeries and sometimes I forget how much this has increased my sense of smell to a point it can be overwhelming. You know the episode of Rugrats where they give Chuckie a super sniffer surgery? Yeah, kinda like that 😅 I'm just remembering this and think it's relevant about how and which fragrances I appreciate and how I perceive some notes. I went 30 years with about half the sense of smell I have now.

      Ent and me have gotten real close lol. My inner nostril holes were too small to start but eventually my Dr looked up my nose and said he literally couldn't see into it, so they did a cat scan and found polyps which are pretty common. Removed them and made my airway and nasal cavity wider. Then years later I just continually have sinus infections, stick this lonnnng camera in there to look lol and they had to essentially go in again and further yet open up my nasal cavities.
