frostyjohn,
I am so glad that surgery is over and it all went well!
Regarding the antibiotics.... please make sure with the surgeon about when you are to start the new antibiotics. Please don't assume that you have to finish the original rx first.
Hope you continue to do well and your recovery is healthy and complete!!

The pus stopped coming out the day the of the surgery. My surgeon said he took out three polyps and cleaned my sinuses of a lot of mucus. He said I had a lot of mucus build up in my sinus. He also put some mucus for a culture. The doctor said he did not notice anything like a fistula in my sinus.
We got the results back from the culture yesterday. The doctor said it grew bacteria and he gave me an antibiotic specifically for that bacteria. I am going to start to take those once my current antibiotics finish (the ones give to me fore my post op recovery).
So far I've only had minor sinus pressure in my forehead. No leaking/throbbing gum, no maxillary sinus pressure. Hopefully it stays that way when the antibiotics stop.
