I read somewhere on Reddit or somewhere way back when about The nasal cycle where one nostril sort of constricting (just due to blood flow and normal sinus congestion) allows for optimal air flow and moisture in our nostrils.

The poster also said that if this regular nasal cycle resulted in being unable to breathe on one side, consistently, you have a deviated septum. I don't know if that's 100% true, but I 100% had a deviated septum.

Omg going into surgery my doctor told me I wouldn't need them so it was quite a surprise when they came out!

And yeah, it was hella weird. But I had probably the best sleep ever that night.

There was nothing like it.

However, that weekend I got ill. Ended up in the the ER with IV antibiotics, they couldn't see it on an X-ray, but I hand pneumonia. Thankfully those antibiotics cleared it completely in 5ish days but damn, there's not many times when you get taken by ambulance from one doctor office to another lol
