Remember last week when I posted about...

...knowing if you smell bad or not?  I had another post sinus surgery follow up with the ENT this morning and thought he was going to tell me I had another sinus infection or something because I've been a little stuffy and greenish.  My throat has also been pretty sore from what's draining down back there.  He told me (and I can't remember exactly how he put it) that it's part of the healing process that the scabbing really needs to be flushed out of there with the nasal spray constantly because bacteria is settling in and that's what the smell is.  I breathed a huge sigh of relief because I was beginning to think it was me and something was horribly wrong because all of a sudden I smelled so bad.  Thank goodness it's just my sinuses!!

Phew!

When L had his adenoids removed they told us that he'd have really bad breath for about a week (and he did!) due to the scabbing & healing process.

What a relief for you!
