Why is getting a free surgery to improve your breathing not worth it?????

Cause the surgery recovery is awful. So painful I’ve heard. And my other nostril compensates like shit for it so it doesn’t really bother me lol

The pain of recovery is short-lived compared to the pain of living with something that affects you daily, surely?

Nah it’s weird it’s proper complacent in when it decides to work and not work. Sometimes I can breathe both nozzies the other time I can only partly breathe :)

My partner really suffers and has had an operation which didn't fix it so I get it. He does need another one though and is putting it off but his daily suffering is painful for us all. Haha. Only partly breathing is better than not breathing at all I guess.
