Before posting I searched the forum. For all those who have been told that they should do it and aren't sure: Do it tomorrow! It will change your life! (and your spouse's !)
I was operated on on July 7. Before the operation I had told the doc that I'm planning a vacation with diving for the last week of August. He said diving wouldn't be a problem. In my latest post op visit the Doc said to limit diving to 30 feet (I'm going to the Dominican Republic on August 23.) He said if I dive too deep I may run the risk of nose bleeding. Now I am doing fine although I still have a couple of blood crusts left.
Does anyone have experience or knowledge about diving six weeks after septoplasty?
