Why I won't miss Utah

Today I had the lovely priveledge of going to a Otolaryngologist, or however you spell it. An ear, nose and throat doctor. Now for all you skeptics out there who think I am a hypochondriac, screw you! Haha just kidding, but seriously don't judge, I have honestly not been able to breathe through my nose for about six months. Yes some days are a little better than others, but overall by the end of every day I am about in tears from the stress of a constant swollen nose and throat. Just ask Scott. Anyway, in the beginning when it started(around February) I thought it was just a cold, a really bad cold that would not go away. Then as weeks and months went by I realized that I was not sick, I just could not breathe. My throat started to feel swollen, making me swallow constantly and irritate it further. Anyway I was just so puzzled about why this was happening, because I have never had allergies or problems like this. Well when I went to see this doctor today he examined me by sticking various instruments up my nose, one of which was so long it extended down into my throat. Yes, it was just as fun as it sounds. But it was really good that I went because I found out a lot about myself that I was unaware of. One thing that is unrealated is that I have tiny tonsils. Anyway, after looking at me the doctor said my adenoids were huge, he compared them to a five year olds (Did not mean much to me), he also said that my right side has a deviated septum. I knew that I had more difficulty breathing through my right side, but when he showed me the images I could actually see that my right side had about half of the opening compared to the left. Crap!! He also said that the cause of my swollen throat is reflux, which is hard for me to beleive because I have no symptoms apart from my throat. He showed me the specific part of your throat that is mainly affected by relfux, mine was red and inflamed, he said on a scale of one to ten my throat was an eight, yeah tell me about it....
Anyway the reason for the "Why I won't miss Utah title" is becasue I am convinced that the horrible pollution is a main reason for my problems. Don't get me wrong I love Utah, but the combination of dry air(after living in Texas), and the horrible pollution has not been good for me. He said it was very likely that they were the main contributors. So now for the next month I will be shooting nasal steroids up my nose, and I also have to by one of those Grandpa foam wedge pillows that will help me sleep upright. I am not trying to be a whiner but I am praying that this is not a temporary thing. Sorry about the complaining, if anyone has had similar problems let me know, I am always looking for advice. I know nobody probably reads my blog but o-well!
