Hi, @johnhans - you mentioned having a deviated septum. I had surgery on mine as my allergist detected it when I first arrived at Mayo Clinic in 1997, sent me to ENT, and next thing I knew I was signed up and on my way to getting my septum repaired. Have you thought about having surgery for it?

I checked into surgery for my deviated septum about 20 years ago and was told it was not medically necessary. In Minnesota at that time it was illegal to get any medical procedure done that was not medically necessary. Thus since I never saw that this law was repealed, I never tried again. Now at my age I do not think I will try again. Thank you for thinking of me.
