Hey guys, so its day 7 after surgery
and as you can see I’ve had my cast taken off.
So, yeah, I can finally breathe again
and trust me what a relief it is it feels so good
and I’m really pleased with the results already,
even though it’s not the final results.
So, I will just go through the experience
of how it was to actually have it taken off.
So, yeah, the first thing was
to actually take the cast off.
So, that wasn’t a painful experience,
it was just more of the pressure of it
and obviously it can take, not that many seconds
to take off but my one did, it take,
it took about a minute or two
and obviously you like scrapping it off bit by bit.
So, it does get a bit irritating.
Like you know when you rub on an area for so long
and then suddenly it just starts to get really irritable.
That’s how it felt you just want to sort of you know
away from it but obviously, you have to stay still.
So, it would just be done and sorted quickly.
So ya after he took that off he cleaned the nose
and around the area and then once he had done
that he gave me a mirror to show me the results
which as I said I do, I really love.
There was no like shock, like I didn’t feel like
look different like it’s exactly how I wanted it
like still look like me which was nice.
I was expecting like scalps
and icky bits still around my nose,
but quite nice actually to see my nose.
After he had done that he cleared out
my nose with this long, I don’t know what it’s called.
But it’s just, it’s like a suction thing
and it goes like all the way in your nose
which was really, it wasn’t a very nice experience.
It wasn’t painful and it was manageable.
But it’s not nice someone putting it around in your nose.
It didn’t hurt, it didn’t actually hurt
like taking out the blood and everything.
It was just more of the sensation of something
in my nose which I didn’t like,
I kind of cringe at things like that.
But yeah that wasn’t that awful to be fair
And then oh no sorry,
that was actually after he took the stiches out,
so yeah when he took the stiches off
I thought that was going to be the most painful.
But it literally felt like a little pinch,
like not even a pinch, it didn’t feel like anything.
But obviously it really doesn’t hurt, taking stiches out,
I didn’t realize, I’ve never had stiches before
but no pain at all with that.
I think the worst overall would've been
the suction cleaning out my nose.
So, yeah, all and all it was quite an easy process,
I can’t believe how quick it was actually
from having a cast on in surgery to it off.
So, yeah and actually glad to feel my nose,
I feel the bridge of it
it’s so straight now, it feel so nice.
Yeah, so I will show you what it looks like,
I don’t know if you can remember me showing
the picture of what my nose did look like
but you can look back at the photos.
So, beforehand I had, yeah,
quite a bump on my nose and that’s why I didn’t like.
So, I will show you, so this is obviously my front
and then here is my side profile.
So yeah all in all very happy,
still going to be obviously video up in two weeks.
So, from a week from now just to see how things go.
But yeah no I’m very pleased, it does so weird like
obviously I am able to feel my nose now and you can’t feel,
well you kind of sort of slightly feel it.
It’s just like you know when like you're really cold
and you touch your nose and you can just feel it
but you can’t actually because it doesn’t feel like your nose,
it just feels like that like it’s quite tender
and kind of yeah wierd sensation.
I can feel my nostrils I can feel
the bridge of my nose, essentially just the tip,
that’s really numb.
My lip, the top bit still numb too
but my face is pretty much.
I’m not sure why I asked Dr. De Silva why
I was quite numb around this area.
He said it just normally affects
like this area not like your full head
but it must be from how swollen I am.
It must have just gone on the forehead too.
I can kind of move my eyebrows now.
So, yeah, but I will update you tomorrow.
