@marychickadee- Hi. Can you tell me if your son also had headaches? And how is his mental health? I have tried to stay away from the forums actually, some sound hopeless with too much negativity.

No headaches. But severe issues with inability to sleep, anxiety, depression. Has not worked since this happened due to depression and fixation on nose. Doctors don't recognize it as being as serious as it is. Saw Dr. Das in Ohio but stem cells didn't work. Dr. Jakar Nayak Stanford will use (hyaluronic acid?) which swells the tissue slowing air flow - he calls it "speed bumps" they last about 3 months. There has to be a turbinate remnant left to do implant. Dr. Nayak is the only one I know of who does those. Not sure cause of headaches but some have mentioned accupuncture working.
