Day one post-op!!

Well, it's 5 am and I'm up for the fifth time, so I decided to update my blog. Can't sleep for long periods of time-must be b/c I'm in the recliner. Also, been icing every time I wake up, so I guess that's good. I did well-surgery was good (except they told me after that my heartrate dropped into the 40's-that's nutty)-no cpr needed :) I recovered with a bolus of iv fluids.

Anyhow, I get 2 sponges removed today-then I have no packing, so that's good. If you notice in my pics, he has 2 black strings attached to the sponges and they're pulling on my nostrils pretty good. I think the "pug" look I have going on right now can be attributed to that. If not, I now have a new nose resembling a pig.

Also, so far the only bruising is on the bridge of my nose, none around my eyes yet-still wondering if that will show up in a day or two? (Sorry that there's 2 of the smae pic-I have no clue how to delete that image-even went to help options and can't do it-any suggestions? )

Thanks, again, for all your support-you guys have been awesome! :)
