Was anybody else looking for Saddam Hussein for like 10 minutes?
It's just a fancy new name for a lobotomy

I had a sinus surgery for polyps. First off, thankfully, I was unconscious, and secondly, it was a near fully automated procedure. They did a CT scan of my sinuses, used it like a GPS map, and the machine just does its thing while being over seen by the surgeon.

I had 2 sinus surgeries. Let me tell you how that went. Doctor yeah no big deal just couple of adjustments. The day of surgery. Ok so here is a trash can for all the blood. I am going to give you 4 shots inside your nose. Now bend over trash can and let blood drain. Bend over and a waterfall of blood. After about 5-10 mins. He comes in and takes a metal chisel and starts adjusting my nose. I could hear the crunching sound and feel the pressure. Then he cuts some pieces out of my nose. About 2 months later it was back to prior surgery status. Next surgery was an inflatable balloon inside the nose cavity. Again I expected simple procedure. Damn if It wasn’t almost a repeat except this time the balloon was being inflated in nostril and I could hear crunching sounds. Same results nose said fuck off mate went back to normal.

They didn’t put you under for that?? God Almighty. My septiplasty was brutal but successful so it was worth it for me. At least they had the decency to knowxi me out for it.
salty_chief@lemmy.world 3 days ago
Nope. I heard others tell me they were put under. It was a small practice. I didn’t know any better. Retro spec should have looked up surgery before agreeing to it.

That’s brutal. Was this cosmetic or to breath better?
salty_chief@lemmy.world 3 days ago
Not cosmetic. In attempt to correct deviated septum.

Yeah, this is why I stick with breathing through my mouth. Truly horrifying.
