Newbie With Questions.... Posted: 12-10-05 01:59am
Hi there,
i recently went to the doctor after having
issues with my left nasal passage. It's
continually blocked, I often smell blood
and sometimes hear/feel a popping
sensation within my left nostril.
The doctor informed me that I have a
deviated septum, and performed a ct scan
to see if any other issues are brewing (as
he couldn't see behind the deviation). I
don't yet have the results of the ct scan,
but will post them when I know.
I was wondering if anyone else has
experienced anything like this, or if
there's any information available about
the blood smell & popping sensation
(within the nostril). Thanks for any
help/info. That can be given.
As far as meds are concerned, i'm on
levoxyl (.137mg, for hypothyroidism),
novolog (via insulin pump, for type I
diabetes), and mavik (2mg - low dose, as a
prophylaxis ace inhibitor). I don't have
high blood pressure and never have, but
have had type I diabetes for almost 24
years. I hope this information helps, and
again, I appreciate any suggestions/ideas
on this. :)
