Well It is wonderful just to hear that you are okay a safe. Good luck with everything and check in when you get a chance! -
Thank you all so much.... Cindy I didnt think of hot towels.. but Im going to try it.. I have been in a lot of pain this evening... and the stink seems to get worse, maybe because its working it self out.. I rinsed a couple more time and large amout of yellow mucus came out I hope that is a good sign.. I took 8 Predisone today.. tomorrow I take 7 the next day I take 6... and so on until the last day I take 1 I finally ate a little today... I wasnt eatting much because I was so scared and I got very weak from it.. but once I had a bit to eat I felt better... I think it will all get better... and Im going to learn to be much more careful and try never to PB again... Im sorry I had to go through this to make me relize that I need to watch out more of what I am doing and what I am putting in my mouth. Thanks again everyone for your wonderful suport and caring. I dont know what I would do without you all ((((((((((((((((((((((((BIG HUGS))))))))))))))))))))))))

Okay I got my update. I went to the ENT and explained everything that happened gory details and all! He said that PBing out my nose triggered a bad case of Sinusitis.... He took a scope down my nose and looked around, He also found traces of Allergies, and My Larynx was very swollen due to Acid refulx. I also have inflammed joints in my jaw from grinding my teeth and biting down to hard... He almost wanted to pass off the Sinusitis and though I might not have that... but I let him first hand take a wiff of my lovely smelly nose LOL he got a sour look on his face and said Yes that I did have Sinusitis. Im on Prednisone, Carisoprodol, Flonase, and Prevacid... I have to go have a upper GI and go see a Dr. for facial pain... I also have to have a head CT. He seemed quite worried.. but said that he will get me fixed up! WOW what a weekend I had huh! Thanks everyone for your support and consern.. You all are a wonderful buch of people!!! If I would of waited any longer I could have done some serious damage. Thanks again (((((((((((((((((hugs))))))))))))) ***im skipping school tonight to rest and soak in all that was done to me today!******

I called my PCP and he wanted me to see a Ear, Nose, and Throat Spealist.. my hubby is on the phone with them now.. They are going to get me in at 10:30 (in 1 hour) I better go get ready.... I will be back to tell you all how it went..
-
Congrats!!! That is wonderful!! Keep it up!!
-
Thank you Teresa... I dont have an appointment.. Im going to call my PCP and see if he will take me in.. if not I will go to Urgent Care. Either way I will see someone today!
-
The thing that I did wrong was, once my food got stuck and tried to wait and sit it out hopeing it would go down.. collecting way to much slime.. to where, when i did PB there was so much I could hardly breathe and thats what made it come out my nose. I say just becareful. and I hope you dont have to experience a PB but if you do Im sure it will be nothing like mine! P.S. Sorry to put out my scare story.. didnt intend to scare you, or anyone else.
-
This isnt my first PB.. I have had several of them... but this one by far is the worst and probably doesnt happen very offten.. I just wasnt taking good enough care of myself. -Its 5:00 and I can not sleep.. the burning in my nose is so bad, and I have the worst taste in my mouth. I cant wait until I go to the doctor.. maybe he has better tools to flush whatever is up there out... *Teriyaki chicken anyone?* Ewwwww lol
-
I started to go to Curves... again... and Its great! the first time I started going I had lost 17lbs (no band) and gain it all back plus some a total of 41lbs.. but now Im back and I look forward to losing lots more!! I think you should try it out and see what you think.
-
Thanks everyone.... I cant even sleep the taste in my mouth is so bad... I hope the Dr. fixes me tomorrow because I cant live with this taste and smell.. its making me sick. My fever went down so Im feeling better... Its not a cold or anything.. just something stuck in my sinuses giving me an infection. PLEASE.. anyone reading this... Anytime you PB or spit up in anykind of way.. take care of yourself... Really pay attention to your breathing and how much slime while you are letting out... dont let this stuff come out your nose! and if it does rinse very very well and keep very close eye on it. dont let it get bad like I have... Okay im done scolding.... sorry... But this is really scaring me and its really gross!!!!
-
Thank You so much... That means a lot to me! (((((((((((((((hugs))))))))))))))
-
WOW that is awesome!!! sometimes the way we lose weight is by shocking our bodies once in a while.... Im do happy for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!! woohoo
-
Okay the 24 hour nurse told me.. SEE A DOCTOR!.... Okay this is very serious now... She also said to stop rinseing it out.. because it can irritate it worse. She is thinking I got a food particle stuck in my sinuses and now has cause a very serious infection. OMG Im scared now... my temp is also rising... she said I will be good tonight, but I need to see a doctor tomorrow no later.
-
Im calling my Insur. help line right now! I totally forgot I had that option
-
I think when I PBed, and food came out my nose.. some got stuck up there and now is rotting.. The foul odor is the food rotting.. and the yellow is infection trying to fight off what ever is in there... Yes I will call my PCP in the morning... Im still flushing out my nose as best as I could
-
You think I should be worried?? I have been flushing it.. and some mucus yellow stuff is coming out.. again with foul ordor.. but its still really bad... I guess if its still really bad tomorrow I will call my Doctor.
