nasal polyps and deviated septum

I just went to the ENT Dr. on Monday because I've been having obvious signs of polyps. I can't breathe from my nose at all. It sounds like I have a cold because the polyps are blocking my airway. I've had polyps removed at least 3 or 4 times in the past 6 years. Dr. has mentioned they will always grow back even after removed. Just a matter of WHEN. Mine grow back about every one and a half to two years but this time they came back within only a year. I had surgery around this time last year. Dr. said he has the ability to remove polyps in his office but he couldn't do it with me because my nose is too narrow. He said because I've had so many polyps they have actually moved my septum over causing my nose to be narrow. So this time around I need polyps removed AND my septum fixed. Has anyone else had these problems? How is the pain afterwards? It's so frustrating. CF problems are never-ending. You fix one thing and another one decides to surface. Surgery is scheduled for Dec. 11th. I am so uncomfortable. I can't breathe and have terrible sinus headaches. My whole face throbs! I NEVER snore and some nights my poor husband has to sleep on the couch because it's so loud. Can't wait to get some relief. Thanks for listening. Hugs,
