My nose

[ciphergoth]

I'm sick of having a crap nose! I've spoken to my GP and said it's about time I had surgery to have my nasal polyps removed - she's referred me to St George's ENT. I can't wait! I won't have a permanent cold any more - I'll sleep better, feel better, I'll be able to taste food, think straight, not have to have tissues with me everywhere and won't be blowing my nose all the time. I don't know why I waited so long - about a fortnight ago it got that bit worse and I felt crap for a bit, and then when it didn't get better again a week later I thought "sod this, I want the op".

Also, they do a CT scan before the op. I want the dataset! My own skull - how cool is that?

Also, I twisted my ankle on the way home on Tuesday, shortly after bumping into indigo_violet outside Liverpool St Station. Owww! The station couldn't give me painkillers - I limped home where spikeylady met me at the station and was lovely to me for about 24 hours straight.

The above is the user icon Jess has made me for nose-related posts. Once I get around to renewing my paid account I'll start using it...

Hurrah! This is likely to be a Very Good Thing. It'll be lovely for you to be able to live without a nasty cold and painful sinuses in the morning. I'm v glad you're going for it :-)

Hope your ankle's alright - how bad's the twist? Is it swollen? Have you been resting it and keeping it elevated? Could it be sprained, or could you have pulled the tendons? (Don't mind me, I'm just the world expert on twisted ankles - I have told you about mine, haven't I, and the trouble it's caused? [g])

I examined it after carrying him (well, sort of) back from the station, and there wasn't much visable swelling, so I think just a twist/strain. It seems lots better now :)
