I have full-blown Chronic Sinus Disease. I also have full sinuses right now...gee, I knew that!

I also have a deviated septum. Now that's the part that blew my mind. HUH! Is this something that just happens all of a sudden? I always thought this is a birth anomaly.

So, I am getting a referral to an ENT specialist. Recommendation: Evaluate for surgery. Nunh uh....

Wow! what a dx. Be a good girl and see the ENT. If you can be fixed and prevent this crud, go for it. I'm really sorry you are going through this yuck. Please take care as always and hug Holly girl too.

Thanks Beth. I am waiting for approval from my insurance to go to the ENT doc I want to go to. We just switched to TriCare and I want to see an out of network doctor who is a friend.

Holly dog is doing fine! We have to keep an eye on her b/c she keeps jumping the back fence! You'd never know she has about 30 staples in her side! Dog is indestructable!!!
